C-TPAT-Partner Agreement to Voluntarily Participate

This Agreement is made between xx (hereafter referred to as "the Partner") and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (hereafter referred to as "CBP").

This Agreement between the Partner and CBP will enhance the joint efforts of both entities to better secure the international supply chain to the United States. CBP and the Partner recognize the need to improve and expand existing security practices in order to achieve a more efficient and compliant import process.

The Partner agrees to develop and implement, within a framework consistent with the listed C-TPAT criteria, a verifiable and documented program to enhance security procedures throughout its supply chain. Where the Partner does not exercise control of a production facility, distribution entity, or process in the supply chain, the Partner agrees to communicate the C-TPAT criteria to those entities.

Specifically, the Partner agrees to:

1. Commit to working with business partners and CBP to meet C-TPAT minimum security criteria.

2. Using the online application process (the C-TPAT Security Link Portal), complete a supply chain security profile and update information regarding the company on an annual basis.

3. Provide complete and accurate company information in response to C-TPAT inquiries.

4. Comply with C-TPAT program requirements to ensure integrity at each stage of the Partner�s supply chain.

5. Cooperate with the C-TPAT validation process including assisting the CBP Supply Chain Security Specialists (SCSS) in planning for and conducting site visits.

6. Acknowledge and cooperate with re-validation procedure as deemed necessary by CBP.

7. Maintain security integrity throughout the partnership, conducting periodic self-assessments in line with the changing risks and complexity of international business and trade.

8. Cooperate with CBP, domestic and foreign port authorities, foreign customs administrations and others in the trade community, in advancing the goals of C-TPAT and the Container Security Initiative (CSI).

9. Acknowledge and accept this Agreement to Voluntarily Participate by marking the �I agree� box below.

Upon acceptance, review, and/or certification in the C-TPAT program, CBP will:

1. Assign a Supply Chain Security Specialist (SCSS) to work individually with the Partner in C-TPAT procedures.

2. Review the Partner�s C-TPAT application within 90 days of receipt.

3. Conduct a C-TPAT validation within one year of the Partner�s C-TPAT certification in accordance with section 215 (a) of the �Security and Accountability for Every Port Act of 2006� (SAFE Port Act), Pub. L. 109-347, 120 Stat. 1917. CBP will, to the extent possible, be flexible to the Partner�s scheduling availability.

4. Provide the Partner with feedback regarding the validation including any security enhancement recommendations, actions required, and recognition of CBP identified best practices.

5. Endeavor to assist the Partner with security threat awareness training and in identifying high risk factors specific to the Partner�s operating environment(s).

6. Not request that the Partner take any action which would conflict with any U.S. laws or regulations relevant to the Partner�s operations.

7. Provide C-TPAT participant verification capability via the Status Verification Interface (SVI).

8. Conduct re-validations in accordance with time frames set forth in section 219 of the SAFE Port Act.

9. Allow the Partner a reasonable timeframe within which to comply with and/or implement security practices or measures that represent an amendment or change to current C-TPAT imposed requirements.

10. Where feasible and to the extent practical, extend specific C-TPAT benefits to Partners at U.S. ports of entry.

11. Provide the opportunity for C-TPAT Partners to be eligible to participate in the developing Mutual Recognition Program by exchanging information with foreign administrations, which may enable C-TPAT partners to receive more benefits, but only through prior consent of the C-TPAT member.

CBP acknowledges that during the course of the C-TPAT membership relationship between CBP and the Partner, CBP may become privy to proprietary business information. CBP recognizes the confidential nature of such information, and agrees to take the appropriate measures to maintain the confidentiality of this information in accordance with U.S. law.

This Agreement is subject to review by the Partner or CBP and may be terminated with written notice by either party.

This Agreement cannot, by law, exempt the Partner from any statutory or regulatory sanctions in the event that discrepancies are discovered during a physical examination of cargo or the review of documents associated with the Partner�s CBP transactions.

Nothing in this Agreement relieves the Partner of any statutory or regulatory responsibilities under United States law, including any requirements imposed under DHS and CBP statutes and regulations.
