This response explores the question of whether a non-US entity can file the Importer Security Filing (ISF), a requirement by the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for most shipments entering the United States. The answer is yes, a non-US entity can file the ISF by appointing an authorized agent in the United States. The authorized agent must possess a valid Customs Power of Attorney (POA) from the non-US entity and have a comprehensive understanding of customs regulations and procedures. The non-US entity remains ultimately responsible for the accuracy and timeliness of the ISF filing, even when done through an authorized agent. This response highlights the necessary considerations and requirements for a non-US entity to file the ISF.
