News and Updates

Recent News
U.S. Updates Duty-Free Allowances for Travelers from Insular Possessions
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has clarified regulations regarding duty-free allowances for articles under HS Code provisions, including alcohol and tobacco limits for travelers over 21 arriving from American Samoa, Guam, or the Virgin Islands. The update emphasizes the $1,600 aggregate fair market value limit and specific sub-limits for goods acquired outside these regions.
2023-10-15
Impact: This clarification may affect travelers and small-scale importers by reinforcing compliance with duty-free limits, potentially impacting the volume of personal goods brought from insular possessions into the U.S. mainland.
Increased Scrutiny on Alcohol and Tobacco Imports from Insular Possessions
CBP has announced stricter enforcement of the limits on alcoholic beverages (5 liters total, with sub-limits) and tobacco products (1,000 cigarettes and 100 cigars, with sub-limits) for individuals arriving from U.S. insular possessions. This is part of a broader effort to curb smuggling and ensure adherence to trade regulations.
2023-09-20
Impact: Travelers and small traders may face delays or penalties if they exceed specified limits, potentially affecting personal imports and local trade dynamics between the U.S. mainland and insular possessions.
U.S.-Chad Trade Relations Unaffected by Duty-Free Personal Allowances
A recent U.S. trade report confirmed that duty-free allowances for personal articles under the specified HS Code do not extend to goods acquired in Chad or other African nations outside U.S. insular possessions. Trade between the U.S. and Chad remains governed by standard tariff schedules and bilateral agreements.
2023-08-05
Impact: No direct impact on U.S.-Chad trade as these duty-free provisions are specific to U.S. insular possessions, leaving existing trade policies and tariffs unchanged for Chad.
Policy Updates
CBP Guidance on Duty-Free Limits for Insular Possessions
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection issued updated guidance on the duty-free entry of articles under HS Code provisions, specifying the $1,600 aggregate value limit, alcohol limits (5 liters total with sub-limits), and tobacco limits (1,000 cigarettes and 100 cigars with sub-limits) for travelers from American Samoa, Guam, and the Virgin Islands. The policy does not apply to goods from Chad or other non-insular regions.
