In this video, we discuss the process of filing an Importer Security Filing (ISF) for garden hose reels in the context of customs brokerage. The responsibility of filing the ISF falls on the importer or their authorized agent, such as a licensed customs broker. We recommend seeking assistance from a customs broker if you are unfamiliar with the ISF filing process. We provide a list of information that needs to be included in the ISF for garden hose reels, such as buyer and seller information, manufacturer or supplier information, and container stuffing location. It is crucial to submit the ISF to CBP at least 24 hours before the goods are loaded onto a vessel.
