Who needs US customs bond?

1. Importers: Importers who bring goods into the United States are generally required by the CBP to have a US customs bond. This bond serves as a financial guarantee to ensure compliance with customs regulations and payment of duties, taxes, and fees.
2. Customs brokers: Customs brokers, who act as intermediaries between importers and the CBP, are also required to have a customs bond. This bond ensures that the broker will fulfill their obligations, such as submitting accurate documentation and paying any necessary fees on behalf of their clients.
