In this video, we delve into the topic of ISF compliance and export control regulations, with a specific focus on navigating dual-use shipments. The Importer Security Filing (ISF), also known as the 10+2 filing, requires importers to provide detailed information about their cargo before it arrives in the United States. This serves as a security measure to assess the safety and security of goods. Dual-use shipments refer to items that can have both civilian and military applications, and export control regulations are in place to prevent their unauthorized transfer. To navigate these complexities, it is important to work with experienced customs brokers, ensure accurate documentation, be prepared for inspections, establish a compliance program, and leverage technology and automation.
