For customs brokers
Your clients’
certifications, on file
before CBP asks.
Clients claiming USMCA on Mexican goods must keep the certification behind each claim for 5 years, and CBP can ask for it with a CF‑28. We collect those certifications from your client’s Mexican suppliers, check them and keep one binder per supplier.

The 9903.82.21 line
needs supplier data.
Under Proclamation 11032, USMCA-qualifying steel and aluminum articles on the Annex I-C list pay the 25% Section 232 duty only on non-US content. Many clients put everything on the 25% line because the supplier data isn’t there.
We collect each supplier’s signed US-content statement per part number and, with your client’s written OK, hand it to you. You do the split and file. We don’t verify the figures or prepare entries.
