Reference Guide to U.S. Foreign-Trade Zones
(requires username and password)
The online version of our FY 2011 Reference Guide to U.S. Foreign-Trade Zones is now available for access. The Reference Guide, first prepared in 1986, is an invaluable tool for all foreign-trade zones program participants and is the only source for all historical data on the FTZ program. A significant amount of this information is not available elsewhere. Each individual zone has their own dedicated page which contains a listing of all Applications, Board Orders, Administrative Actions, all Alternative Site Framework Applications, and Manufacturing/Production Authority Applications. All deactivated, closed, terminated, revoked, expired, lapsed, and transferred zones are listed. Zone data is organized and presented by zone number, state, company name, Zone Operator name, and business category.
Foreign-Trade Zone Annual Report Summary (FY 2010)
(requires purchase)
We are pleased to provide, for the first time, a detailed analysis of the Foreign-Trade Zones Board Annual Report to Congress for Federal Fiscal Year 2010 (October 1, 2009 – September 30, 2010). This level of detail is the result of hundreds of hours spent analyzing three years of Foreign-Trade Zone Board data. It provides a very detailed analysis of all zones, subzones, and merchandise flowing through the zones program. We believe a three year analysis is the key to identifying real trends because of the global economic crisis.
Miller & Company has produced a complete and current set of the Federal Statute, the Foreign-Trade Zones Board Regulations (published in the Federal Register on February 28, 2012), the U.S. Customs & Border Protection Regulations, and the CBP FTZ Manual. The documents are updated yearly and are available exclusively to our clients so they can fulfill their compliance requirements of having current and up-to-date documentation. In addition the Source Documents will include, from our Reference Guide, a current list of all zone activity by Zone Number, State, Industry Type, and Company Name. We believe all of these documents will be a useful resource that can be downloaded for quick electronic or hard copy reference.
