New CBP Informed Compliance Publication on Rulings
CBP summarizes the information in this publication as follows.
“If you plan on importing into
the United States, you may wish to consider obtaining a binding ruling before the product arrives at the port so that you
will know how CBP will treat the merchandise. Should you disagree with the ruling that you have received, you may appeal that
letter by sending a request for reconsideration to the [Regulations and Rulings] RR Headquarters Office. In addition, if you
have questions about how a port is handling your goods, you may request that the port seek internal advice from the RR Headquarters
Office. Finally, if you disagree with the port’s decision regarding your merchandise you may protest that decision and
request that the RR Headquarters Office review the port’s decision on the protest so long as certain requirements are
met. By following the suggestions above in formulating your requests, you can make the process of obtaining a ruling or other
decision from CBP as problem free as possible.”
