How to Become C-TPAT Certified? 

Being C-TPAT certified takes a lot of effort on the company's part and basically has three steps. The basic process of getting a C-TPAT certification is as follows - 

 In the first step the company is expected to conduct a complete security risk assessment and document the entire process 

The company thereafter has to submit a basic application via the C-TPAT portal system 

The third step for the company is to complete a supply chain security profile which explains how the company meets C-TPAT's minimum security measures 

After successful submission of the application the CBP reviews the submitted application. The C-TPAT program then will have 90 days to approve or reject the company's certification. Once certified, the company will be validated within three years of certification. 

Why is C-TPAT Important? 

When any goods are imported, the CBP assigns an unknown risk value to each shipment such as supplier, country of origin, developed intelligence, type of product, etc. When a C-TPAT certified company imports any goods, the CBP deducts some points from the risk value. Due to this the imported goods are placed in a preferred category. Even if the shipment is needed to be inspected the process is much faster. 

 This results in reducing the custom fees, inspection fees, cargo fees, faster time to market, and has an immediate effect on the company's bottom line. 

What are the Benefits of C-TPAT Certification? 

Being part of the C-TPAT certified group comes with its own set of benefits for the companies. Some of the most important C-TPAT benefits include - 

 C-TPAT enables companies to move ahead in the line for inspection 

Companies get access to Free and Secure Trade (FAST) lanes at the borders 

There is lesser probability that the CBP will conduct any inspections and there will be an exemption from Stratified Exams 

Shorter wait times at the borders for passage 

Companies gain access to the C-TPAT Status Verification Interface 

A dedicated CBP Supply Chain Security Specialist is assigned to every company 

This membership makes the company eligible for other government programs such as U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Secure Supply Chain 

C-TPAT gives companies accesses to participate in the Importer Self-Assessment Program
