In-Bond Expert Consolidation (IBEC)
- Warehouse Solutions, specializing in bonded warehousing, offers In-Bond Expert Consolidation (IBEC) services to streamline international shipping and optimize cost efficiency for clients.
- IBEC involves consolidating multiple in-bond shipments, destined for a foreign consignee, into a single shipment.
This process offers several advantages:
– Duty Deferral: Duties are deferred until the consolidated shipment exits the bonded warehouse, improving cash flow for importers.
– Simplified Entry: Consolidating shipments into one simplifies customs procedures at the destination, potentially reducing delays and paperwork.
– Cost Reduction: Combining multiple shipments reduces overall transportation costs compared to shipping individual in-bond shipments. - Warehouse Solutions leverages its bonded warehouse facilities, which are secured areas approved by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), to provide comprehensive IBEC services.
- Clients can store, manipulate, and export dutiable goods without immediate duty payment.
- The bonded warehouse status allows for deferring duty payment until goods are withdrawn for domestic consumption or exported.
- Warehouse Solutions’ bonded warehouses are under the joint custody of a CBP officer, the warehouse proprietor, and Warehouse Solutions’ supervision, ensuring security and compliance.
- Warehouse Solutions’ IBEC services encompass various activities performed within its bonded facilities:
– Consolidation: Combining multiple in-bond shipments into a single, larger shipment for export.
– Repackaging: Adjusting packaging to meet international shipping requirements or optimize container space.
– Relabeling/Remarking: Updating labels and markings to comply with destination country regulations or branding requirements.
– Inventory Management: Tracking and managing inventory levels of goods stored in the bonded warehouse.
– Documentation: U.S. customs paperwork, including Automated Manifest System (AMS), Importer Security Filing (ISF), and CBP forms. - In addition to core IBEC services, Warehouse Solutions can offer:
– Transportation Arrangements: Coordinating transportation with trusted partners to ensure timely pick-ups, deliveries, and movement of goods to other bonded locations, Foreign Trade Zones (FTZs), or export ports.
– Customs Brokerage: Providing access to dedicated in-house customs brokers to assist with import and export documentation and compliance.
– Value-Added Services: Performing additional services such as cross-docking, transloading, and specialized commodity processing to streamline the supply chain. - By leveraging Warehouse Solutions’ expertise in IBEC and bonded warehousing, clients can benefit from:
– Reduced duty costs by deferring payments until export.
– Simplified logistics through consolidated shipments.
– Enhanced control over their cargo within a secure, CBP-approved facility.
– Warehouse Solutions’ comprehensive IBEC services provide a strategic advantage for businesses engaged in international trade, optimizing their supply chains and reducing overall costs.
