Your shipment is not lost. It is waiting for a 10-digit code.
De minimis ($800 duty-free) is gone. Amazon is not the importer. You are. Entry Brief is a $49, 20-minute checklist plus the email you send a CBP-licensed broker so the box can move.
We do not file entries, classify merchandise, or give legal advice. HTS liability stays with the importer of record.
What is inside
- What changed: de minimis ended; you are the importer of record.
- The 6 fields a broker will ask for (product, material, use, origin, value, FBA vs door).
- How to pull 3 HTS candidates on hts.usitc.gov. You do not assign the code.
- Red flags: China 301, food / device / PGA. Get a broker. Do not DIY.
- Informal vs formal, in one page.
- Copy-paste email to a CBP-licensed broker.
- Optional intro to a broker who takes first-time FBA sellers.
For
