U.S.'s Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will create the Trusted Trader program which will involve a unification of the current Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) and Importer Self Assessment (ISA) processes. This approach will enable CBP to provide additional incentives to participating low-risk partners, while benefiting from the added efficiencies of managing supply chain and trade compliance within one partnership program.
CBP is targeting the implementation of Phase I of the Trusted Trader framework to begin by the end of FY2013 (Oct 2012 – Sept 2013).
