Customs-TradePartnershipAgainst Terrorism (C-TPAT) program
As the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s premier trade security program, the Customs - Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) initiative is designed to secure U.S. and international supply chains from possible intrusion by terrorist organizations. In exchange for validating and documenting secure supply-chain controls, C-TPAT companies receive “fast-lane” status at border crossings. In a global marketplace, the ability to quickly get goods to market is critical. Navigating the C-TPAT membership process, however, can be time-consuming and complex. SSI Global guides clients through this process, utilizing a proven and timely method to help ensure “fast lane” status for applicant companies. SSI Global has established a best-in-class training program for Chinese-based import partners working with American C-TPAT companies. The comprehensive training approach covers suppliers, vendors and direct-import partners.
