Navigating global customs regulations can be challenging, but Alfa Global Family offers a detailed guide to international filing systems that makes the process easier. We ensure that members remain compliant with customs laws and filing requirements across key regions:

  • United States:
    • Automated Manifest System (AMS) ensures early notification to US customs.
    • Import Security Filing (ISF) mandates freight declarations 24 hours before shipment.
    • Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) requires carrier manifest registration before reaching borders.
    • Air Cargo Advance Screening (ACAS) demands pre-declaration of air cargo data.
  • Canada:
    • Advance Commercial Information (ACI) filing is required for all shipments to and from Canada, enhancing border security.
  • Japan:
    • Nippon Automated Cargo and Port Consolidation System (NACCS) manages Advance Cargo Information (ACI) for both air and sea entries.
  • South Africa:
    • SARS eManifest ensures compliance with customs regulations, facilitating legal trade while offering economic protection.
  • Mexico:
    • Similar to the US AMS, Mexico requires filing pre-submission 24 hours prior to shipments.
