Every assiduous importer should be aware of what is
expected by the Bureau of Customs and Border protection (CBP), in
terms of recordkeeping responsibilities. CBP issues specific
guidelines to help ensure that importers are adhering to their
responsibilities. Shapiro recommends strict compliance in order to
meet Customs expectations. CBP unsympathetically penalizes parties
that do not conform to these responsibilities.
If your organization is interested in the particulars of
recordkeeping requirements and/or implementing recordkeeping
procedures, our Consulting Team can help. We will formulate an
outline of current recordkeeping guidelines, tailoring it to your
needs. In addition, Shapiro can assist you in performing internal
audits to verify that all requirements are met on a regular basis.

recordkeeping responsibilities, please contact our
