Do you have multiple manufactures or suppliers on an Importer Security Filing?

A common questions among, new ISF direct filers is, "what do I do if I have multiple manufacturers, ship to parties, etc on one ocean shipment?"

The initial thought from most importers is that they will need to file multiple ISFs. However, this is not the case. The direct filer will actually be able to file just one ISF and enter the multiple parties. TRG Direct makes this very simple.

If you are using the ISF Excel template and uploading the document to TRG Direct, you will simply insert as many extra rows in the template as needed. If you are entering the information manually into the system you will simply choose add another party and a new field will appear.

Fill out the ISF and file as you normally do and you are all taken care of!
