CUSTOMS SETS USER FEE DEADLINE
U.S. Customs has set Jan. 18 as the deadline for annual user fees on each Customs broker permit and national permit held by an individual, partnership, association or corporation.
The $125 fee that users pay each calendar year for their permit, is set forth in the Customs Regulations in section 111.96 (19 CFR 111.96).
Customs Regulations provide that the fee is payable for each calendar year in each broker district where the broker was issued a permit to do business by the due date which is published in the Federal Register annually.
