and the ISF must be filed 24 hours *BEFORE* the car is loaded. Even if using a customs broker, insist on seeing a copy of the ISF they filed. You are responsible and liable for the $5,000 if they don't file it.
I paid my broker $180. Good experience. Especially when CBP didn't sign the paperwork correctly - they sorted it all out.

totally agree Malsal.. you also MUST have a custom broker here in the USA set up BEFORE you export it also as the broker in the USA files the CBP 10+2 ISF.. later bc

It seems to average about $150 to use a broker which is money well spent imo when my trip to the port is 400 miles round trip.
