Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ)
Your zone is set up.
After setup, we handle the entire entry process — the paperwork to move goods from the port to the FTZ, and the required weekly entries for zones who move goods into US Commerce.
Now it has to run.
What This Covers
After your FTZ is set up, we handle the entire entry process. That includes managing the paperwork required to move goods from the port to the FTZ and processing the weekly entries.
How We Start
We begin by working with the consultant who managed your setup, to identify any special circumstances. MLIT does not set up FTZs, but rather work directly with those who do. If your company is interested in setting up an FTZ, we are happy to make referrrals.
After conferring with the FTZ consultant, we prepare the required forms and coordinate directly with your internal FTZ team to make sure all the bases are covered. We work to confirm compliance with the regulations and make the process as seamless as possible.
Why There’s No Template for This
Each FTZ has its own nuances, so we don’t take a cookie-cutter approach. We focus on understanding your specific operation and building relationships with the personnel involved, so they’re fully supported in what they’re doing.
