U.S. Customs Bond
CBP continuous or single-entry customs bonds for Arizona importers
U.S. Customs and Border Protection requires surety bonds for many import activities. Arizona importers use federal CBP bond forms.
Or call (877) 477-7578
A U.S. customs bond guarantees payment of duties, taxes, and fees and compliance with CBP laws for import activity.
The surety bond guarantees that the principal will perform the duties required under 19 U.S.C. customs bond requirements - CBP Form 301 up to the penal sum.
A claim may arise if the principal fails to comply with the bonded Arizona obligation or causes covered loss to the obligee or protected parties.
If a claim is valid, the surety may pay up to the bond penalty according to the bond terms; the principal remains liable to reimburse the surety.
Amount, premium, term, and the authority that requires this filing.
Arizona importers, brokers, and related parties who import merchandise into the United States typically need a CBP bond.
Select continuous or single-entry coverage, meet CBP minimums for your activity, and file through an authorized surety and customs broker channel.
Share your license type, court order, or obligee form and the exact penal sum required by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
We review credit and filing details, then quote premium options through licensed surety markets.
Once approved, we issue the bond for delivery to United States of America - CBP or for your Arizona filing package.
The amount is $50,000 minimum common baseline for continuous activity bonds (activity-driven — confirm with CBP and your broker), as set under 19 U.S.C. customs bond requirements - CBP Form 301 and confirmed with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
The obligee is typically United States of America - CBP. Always match the exact name on the Arizona form.
Many Arizona filings can be underwritten the same day when documents and credit are complete; complex amounts may take longer.
Not always. Premium and collateral options vary by credit and bond size — ask for markets that still write the risk.
Most bonds renew on the term shown (1 Year). Keep continuity so your Arizona license or filing does not lapse.
