How does the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) determine whether the goods have been transshipped?

Updated by CUSTOMS
  • The US CBP has informed Singapore Customs that it uses a combination of legal authority, advanced systems, and operational procedures to ensure all duties owed to the US are paid. The US CBP enforces US trade laws through audits, targeting, and frontline import reviews.

  • The Singapore Government expects all businesses operating in Singapore to take into account other countries’ regulations, including import requirements, where relevant to their international business activities. These activities should be conducted transparently. We do not condone businesses deliberately using their association with Singapore to circumvent tariffs.

  • Singapore takes firm and decisive action against companies and individuals that violate our laws. We are committed to maintaining the integrity of our business environment.
