Foreign Trade Zone Advantages
 
If your business imports goods for warehousing, distribution or manufacturing, then you could benefit from being in the Bergeron Park of Commerce Foreign-Trade Zone.
 
Under U.S. Customs regulations a Foreign-Trade Zone is an area considered to be in international commerce. This allows companies to move foreign or domestic materials into a Zone duty-free. Duty is only paid when goods leave the Zone and enter domestic markets.
A Foreign-Trade Zone is a specially designated area, in or adjacent to a U.S. Customs Port Of Entry, which is considered to be outside the Customs Territory of the U.S.
 
  • No Duty Is Ever Paid On Re-Exported Merchandise from a Foreign-Trade Zone
  • If The Merchandise Is Sold Domestically, No Duty Is Paid Until It Leaves The Zone Or Zones
  • Generally, No Duty Is Paid On Waste Or Yield Loss in a Foreign-Trade Zone or Subzone
  • Duty On Scrap Is Eliminated Or Reduced in a Foreign-Trade Zone
  • Generally, If Foreign Merchandise Is Manufactured within a Foreign-Trade Zone or Subzone Into A Product With A Lower Duty Rate, Then The Lower Duty Rate Applies On The Foreign Content When Duty Is Paid
  • Merchandise In A Foreign-Trade Zone May Be Stored, Repackaged, Manipulated,  Manufactured, Destroyed Or Otherwise Altered or Change
 
IS A Foreign-Trade Zone
RIGHT FOR YOUR BUSINESS?

Ask yourself these simple questions:

Does the annual value of the imported merchandise

 

exceed $1 million?

 

Do you manufacture, assemble or process with imports?

 

Do you re-export?

 

Do you import merchandise subject to quotas?
