What is the overall vision for C-TPAT in the coming months and years?
Customs recognizes that a safe and secure supply chain is the most critical part of our work in keeping our country safe. For this reason, Customs is seeking a strong anti-terrorism partnership with the trade community through C-TPAT. Trade partners will have a commitment to both trade security and trade compliance, which are rooted in the same business practices. Customs wants to work closely with companies whose good business practices ensure supply chain security and compliance with trade laws.
