In this video, we address the question of whether the Importer Security Filing (ISF) can be completed by the shipping line or carrier instead of the importer. We start by providing an overview of the importance of ISF filing for national security and trade facilitation. Then, we clarify that the responsibility for filing the ISF lies with the importer or their authorized agent. We explain that while shipping lines and carriers have crucial roles in transporting goods, ISF filing requires specific information that only the importer possesses. We suggest that importers can seek assistance from licensed customs brokers to ensure accurate and timely ISF filing. Lastly, we highlight the penalties for non-compliance with ISF filing and mention other customs-related requirements such as customs bonds that importers should be aware of.
