CBP Issues Proposed Rule on 10 + 2 for Maritime
January 11, 2008

U.S. Customs and Border Protection has issued a proposed rule that would amend its regulations at 19 CFR to require Security Filing (SF) information from importers and additional information from carriers (10 + 2) for vessel (maritime) cargo before it is brought into the United States.
CBP states that this additional information, which would be submitted by way of a CBP-approved electronic data interchange system, will further improve the ability of CBP to identify high-risk shipments in order to prevent the smuggling of terrorist weapons into the U.S. and ensure cargo safety and security.
