In this response, we discuss the question of whether the ISF filing can be completed on paper instead of electronically. We begin by providing an overview of the Importer Security Filing (ISF) and its importance in the import process. We then explain why electronic filing is the preferred method, highlighting the benefits it offers, including time savings and improved accuracy. Next, we address the main question and clarify that the CBP does not accept paper forms for the ISF filing. We emphasize the importance of compliance with electronic filing and discuss the potential penalties for non-compliance. Finally, we advise importers to choose a knowledgeable and experienced customs broker to handle their ISF filings.
