What Is A Foreign-Trade Zone?

A Foreign-Trade Zone is a specially designated area, in or adjacent to a U.S. Customs Port Of Entry, which is considered to be outside the Customs Territory of the U.S.
The following is a partial list of the many benefits you can attain when using Foreign-Trade Zones or Foreign-Trade Zone Subzone:

If The Merchandise Is Sold Domestically, No Duty Is Paid Until It Leaves The Zone Or Zones |

Generally, No Duty Is Paid On Waste Or Yield Loss in a Foreign-Trade Zone or Subzone |
