第一问：在美国，我想进口是否需要什么证书？

Q: Do I need a license to import something?

A:
You do not need a license to act as an importer. However, some items require a license or permit from various government agencies in order to be imported. For more complete information, please see our publication "Importing Into the U.S." The chapter on "Special Requirements" provides very complete information. (Some common items that may require licenses or permits are food products ordered from a commercial vendor, plant, animal and dairy products, prescription medications, trademarked articles such as name-brand shoes, handbags, luggage, golf clubs, toys, etc. and copyrighted material such as CDs, DVDs and tapes)

CBP paperwork does require an "importer number" as a means of identifying who the final recipient of the goods is. If you have a business tax number with the IRS, this number should be used as the importer number. If you do not have a business tax number, you may use your Social Security number.

If you do not wish to give your SSN to a shipper, and your importation is for personal use, is under $2500, and is being cleared by a Customs Broker (very common for goods shipped by courier services), please see our information about using a third party's Importer Number by typing "Social Security Number" in the word search field above.

If you have neither a business tax number nor a social security number, and you are a non-resident of the U.S., you may contact the port where your goods will enter the country and ask them to assign an importer number to you by filing a CBP Form 5106.

A license IS required to act as a Customs Broker, which is someone who clears goods through CBP on behalf of importers who do not want to handle the various technicalities that are involved in importing themselves.

If you have ordered something from an overseas seller over the Internet for your own personal use, you should also see our information on Internet Purchases.

第2问：去美国参展，需要知道什么，准备什么？

Trade Shows - exhibiting a product/ booths

Q:  What do I need to know about exhibiting a product, bringing or shipping supplies for a Trade Show in the U.S.?

A:

If you are traveling into the U.S. to exhibit a product at a Trade Show/Fair, the following is a checklist of recommendations useful for the entry of the items:

Official documentation showing date and location of the Trade Show
Confirmation that you are an exhibitor
Documentation indicating value of items
Mark items "Not for Sale" or mutilate the items
Contact the Port of Entry prior to travel
Complete CF7523-"Entry and Manifest of Merchandise free of Duty"  (For NAFTA Items only)
Check with the government agency that regulates your product for any possible restrictions or required documentation
Obtain the HTSUS code for your items

If shipping supplies and/or the value is over $2500, a Temporary Importation Bond (TIB) or Carnet is the best course of action. This applies to display booths or other items not remaining in the U.S. beyond your intended visit.

怎么获取美国进口商信息

Obtaining information about importers / exporters by commodity

Q: How can I get information about who is importing or exporting various commodities?

A: Importer names on entry documents are confidential and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) does not disclose names of importers to the public. However, there are a number of private sector media services that are permitted by the privacy statute, 19 CFR 103.31 (d), to collect manifest data at every port of entry. Reporters collect and publish names of importers from vessel manifest data unless an importer/shipper requests confidentiality.

Please be aware that there is a subscription charge for this information.

Among the companies that provide this information service are the Journal of Commerce's PIERS database and Ealing Market Data Engineering Co.

You can also try the American Association of Exporters and Importers in New York.
