About the Foreign-Trade Zone Program • Retail sales are prohibited within a zone • The FTZ Act prohibits residence within a zone • With the exception of formal customs entry procedures, all other local, state and federal laws and regulations apply (including labor and immigration laws) • FTZs remain under the direct supervision of U.S. Customs and Border Protection • FTZs are within the territory of the U.S. and merchandise stored in a FTZ is considered imported into the U.S. Using a Foreign-Trade Zone Once a zone location has been established by the FTZ Board, companies are required to “activate” the zone with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) prior to beginning FTZ operations. Zone activity occurs under the supervision of CBP and FTZs remain within the jurisdiction of all other local, state and federal governments or agencies. Types of Companies Using a Foreign-Trade Zone Large and small companies alike use a Foreign-Trade Zone: seventy percent of Foreign-Trade Zone users are small businesses. These companies defer, reduce or eliminate U.S. Customs duties and fees. Such companies include importers, manufacturers, distributors, assemblers of products, and exporters of importedmerchandise and/or products containing importedmerchandise. A company that does not buy or receive imported products from foreign or domestic vendors, and does not plan to do so, will not benefit from the use of a Foreign-Trade Zone.
