Each Friday at noon the Toastmasters club meets for an hour and gives everyone in the club a chance to stand up and speak. At every meeting, a few club members typically have the opportunity to stand up and present a topic of interest, and then the other members of the club provide them with constructive feedback.

Thank you for registering to access Eagle Eye Reporting!
Trade Risk Guaranty has invested in software that connects with U.S. Customs’ database allowing us to download proprietal and highly secured information. Access to Entry information is available only to TRG bond holders. Importers may access information only for their company’s bond with prior registration authorization. Eagle Eye Reporting provides information about:
Importer Bond Status (which will be covered at the end of this presentation)
Entry Status Report
Supplemental Duty Bills
Liquidated Damages Penalties
Let’s get started!
Log-in to Eagle Eye. (on Home Page, look at the top right corner for LogIn)
ENTRY STATUS REPORT:
Reflects the status of entries under each import bond. Allows you to see each entry number, entry date & status, import value, estimated duty, liquidation date & amount per bond per importer.
Entry Number – any entry filed under your TRG bond
Importer Number – Importer of Record number (IOR), tax ID or employer identification number (EIN). If an importer has affiliated companies, such as a DBA business with a different IOR, each number must be entered to Eagle Eye reporting separately.
Date Range – this is optional. If no dates are inserted, the report will give results for the life of the TRG bond.
Report Options:
* Liquidated * Unliquidated * Suspended * All Entries
TRG Entry Status report will include entry information such as:
Entry Date
Import Value
Estimated and Liquidated Duty
Liquidation Date
Entry Detail Summary is accessed by clicking on the red Entry Number.
Export TRG reports. Eagle Eye reports can be downloaded into Excel or Adobe pdf formats.
Eagle Eye VALUE: Importers can obtain a list of entries to review duty, taxes and fees. Unliquidated entries are an outstanding financial obligation to be anticipated. Suspended entries, those put ‘on hold’ until rulings are determined for final duty amounts, should be scrutinized. Suspended entries may require future additional collection of duty upon liquidation and can take years to liquidate.

Each port has a link to view the list of broker contacts in that area.
http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/trade/priority_trade/add_cvd/adcvd_pti.xml
SUPPLEMENTAL DUTY BILLS
Includes information on additional duty bills issued for anti-dumping or countervailing duty, change in classification (HTS), or miscellaneous fees or debit vouchers. Timely response is required to avoid national sanction.
Bills may be issued for:
Anti-dumping or countervailing duty owed upon liquidated of entry
Classification or Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) calculation differences
Miscellaneous – various fees, debit vouchers, etc.
Eagle Eye VALUE: It is recommended that each bill is reviewed for accuracy. If an Importer or their broker feels there is reasonable argument against the additional duties demanded, a formal Protest (CF-19) must be filed within 180 days. Customs’ decision on protests may take months or years to be processed.
Pink invoices are sent via mail by Customs to importers every 30 days until the bill has been paid. It is recommended that bills are paid in full within the first month of receipt to avoid interest accrual. If protested and approved, the payment is refunded including interest to the Importer.
Helpful link:
http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/trade/priority_trade/revenue/bill_payments_sanctions/
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PENALTIES
Liquidated Damages Penalty Notices are issued by Customs’ port office of Fines, Penalties and Forfeitures. They can carry extremely high fines! These are time-sensitive and require resolution of noncompliance along with petition or payment, or both. Failure to comply will result in bond termination and may affect an Importer’s compliance rating. Moreover, violations can alert Customs to initiate heavy scrutiny of all entries.
A penalty notice may be issued for any Code of Federal Regulation or United States code violation.
Common violations include:
Failure or untimely payment of duty or entry paperwork
Failure or untimely electronic filing of ISF
Non-compliance with FDA refusal of goods or redelivery requirements
Non-compliance with carrier bonded merchandise in transit requirements
Eagle Eye VALUE: Timely and complete resolution of entry violations is more than handling an incident; it is a reflection of your overall business practices. Investigation of the source of a violation results in an opportunity to make improvements in supply chain management and increased efficiency. Successfully petitioned penalties have resulted in either complete cancellation of the penalties or by reducing fines up to 97%.

Do I need an International Carrier Bond?
A question came in through our online chat service today about a company transporting a plane for repairs. The company already had an International Carrier bond on file or Activity Code 3 bond. They didn't know if this bond would allow them to enter the US after their plane was fixed in Costa Rica.
We get questions everyday to where there is a completely unique situation to an importer or carrier. In this instance we told them to make sure and contact the port in which the plane would be returning to. The size of their carrier bond would have been determined at this port as well, when they went to place the bond. The size of the bond usually depends on the port and the aircraft in question. It is our understanding that entrance to this port would not be different from any of the company's other activies and thus would be included under this bond. However, always make sure and double check with the port!
You can find a complete list of port contact information here.
Make sure and add this to your favorites in your web browser. You will be surprised how ofter you will need to access this!

Stop wasting money on single entry Customs bonds.
Multiple Single Entry Bonds or 1 Continuous Bond?
In the past, it was more economical for low volume importers to purchase single entry bonds. However, U.S. Customs is now requiring that if a single transaction bond is used to clear the entry an additional single entry ISF bond to be place. This increases the costs of single entry transactions; however, TRG has the solution.
Since 1991, TRG has provided continuous Customs bonds direct to importers. The continuous import bond will cover every shipment over a one year period (both entry and ISF). TRG offers the following promotional pricing to low-volume importers. Call us today to see how you can save!
Applying for Continuous bond is easy.
Send TRG a completed 1 page application and Power of Attorney form,
TRG will contact you with any changes needed on the application,
TRG will place the bond with U.S. Customs,
You will provide your broker (or whomever clears your entries) with the new bond number.
It’s really that simple to decrease your import costs! Don’t pay the high costs of single entry bonds. If you are interested in obtain a continuous bond, please contact TRG or apply online today!

Yesterday we announced our new Marketing Analyst, Kathryn Shaw. Today we are happy to announce that Kimbree Baker has signed on as TRG's new Administrative Assistant.
Both TRG and Kimbree are excited to begin working together. Kimbree joins us from Montana State University in Bozeman, MT. Her degree in Economics will put her in the fast lane to learning about globalization and brining her knowledge to the TRG team.
Along with Kathryn, Kimbree will be starting on June 1st. As much as we would like our new additions to start today, we need to give them time to finish up their education and maybe take a short breather!
We look forward to having you both!
