SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Importer Self-Assessment Program and
the Focused Assessment
The Importer Self-Assessment (ISA)
program is a joint government-business
initiative designed to build cooperative
relationships that strengthen trade
compliance. It is based on the premise
that companies with strong internal
controls achieve the highest level of
compliance with customs laws and
regulations. On June 7, 2002, the former
U.S. Customs Service (now U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP))
published a Federal Register (67 FR
41298) notice announcing the ISA
program and describing the
requirements for participation in, and
benefits under, the program. For the
most part, the requirements for
participation in the ISA program remain
as described in the 2002 Notice, except
that the program has been expanded to
accept Canadian as well as U.S.
importers and participants must retain
self-testing results for three (3) years.
Upon acceptance into the ISA
program, the company will immediately
begin to receive the following benefits:
• Entitled to receive entry summary
trade data, including analysis support,
from CBP.
• Consultation, guidance, and
training by CBP if requested and as
resources permit (for compliance, risk
