Import Requirements
An individual may make his/her own Customs clearance of goods imported for
personal
use or business. All merchandise coming into the United States must clear
Customs
and is subject to a Customs duty unless specifically exempted by law.
Clearance
involves a number of steps: entry, inspection, appraisement, classification
and
liquidation.
The U.S. Customs Service does not require an importer to have a license or
permit.
Other agencies may require a permit, license, or other certification,
depending on what
is being imported. Customs entry forms do ask for your importer number. This
is either
your IRS business registration number, or if your business is not registered
with the IRS
or you do not have a business, your social security number.
The importer must declare the dutiable value of merchandise. The final
appraisement is
fixed by Customs. Several appraisement methods are used to arrive at this
value. The
transaction value serves as the primary basis of appraisement. Transaction
value is the
price actually paid or payable by the buyer to the seller for the goods
imported. Other
factors may also add to the dutiable value of merchandise, such as packing
costs,
selling commissions, royalty or licensing fees, etc. When the transaction
value cannot
be determined, then the value of the imported goods being appraised is the
transaction
value of identical merchandise. If merchandise identical to the imported
goods cannot
be found or an acceptable transaction value for such merchandise does not
exist, then
the value is the transaction value of similar merchandise. Similar
merchandise means
merchandise that is produced in the same country and by the same person as
the
merchandise being appraised. It must be commercially interchangeable with
the
merchandise being appraised. The identical or similar merchandise must have
been
exported to the United States at or about the same time the merchandise
being
appraised is exported to the United States.
The importer must determine the classification number of the merchandise
being
imported. The Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS),
issued by the
United States International Trade Commission, prescribes the classification
of
merchandise by type of product; e.g., animal and vegetable products, textile
fibers and
textile products.
The importer must pay estimated duties and processing fees |
