CDG provides C-TPAT certification services in Visakhapatnam.

United States Customs and Border Protection leads the Customs-Trade Cooperation Against Terrorism (CTPAT), a voluntary, joint government-business partnership for supply chain security and border protection (CBP). Any importers, carriers, consolidators, licensed customs brokers, and manufacturers who want to trade abroad, primarily into the United States, can use CTPAT Certification. It was created with the goal of using a uniform documented procedure to determine and decrease risk throughout their multinational supply chain. 

Historically, the organization has focused on imports entering the United States. CTPAT certification is available in the United States to air carriers, consolidators, cross-border highway carriers, marine port authorities, ocean carriers, rail carriers, terminal operators, third-party logistics (3PLs) providers, Customs brokers, and importers. 

The CTPAT program was first launched by US Customs and Border Protection in November 2001, with seven significant US corporations as the first participants. Importers who have benefited from the program place a high value on the program. CTPAT certification is available in Canada for cross-border or long-haul highway transporters and manufacturers. It is also possible to certify Mexican manufacturers and cross-border highway carriers.
