Annual User Fee for Broker District and National Permits Due Jan. 25

The 2019 annual user fee of $144.74 for each customs broker district permit and national permit held by an individual, partnership, association or corporation is due by Jan. 25, CBP said in a notice. If a broker fails to pay the annual user fee by the published due date, the appropriate port director will notify the broker in writing of the failure to pay and will revoke the permit to operate. The 2019 fee represents an increase from last year's user fee of $141.70, as previously announced (see 1807310028).
