Iyini i-ISF ekuthunyelweni?

Okuqukethwe

Isingeniso

Uma uthumela izimpahla e-United States ngempahla yolwandle, kungenzeka ukuthi uke wezwa amagama athi “ISF” noma “10+2.” Kwabaningi abangenisa impahla abasha, ikakhulukazi izinkampani ze-e-commerce ezikhula ngokushesha, i-ISF izwakala njengenye indlela yokubopha odongeni lokunikezela oluvele luyinkimbinkimbi. Kodwa i-ISF akuyona nje inqwaba yamafomu. Kuyimfuneko yokuphepha enomthelela oqondile ekutheni impahla yakho ingalayisha yini emkhunjini, ukuthi idlula kalula emachwebeni ase-US, nokuthi kuzodingeka ukhokhe izinhlawulo ezibizayo.

Leli khasi lichaza ngamagama alula ukuthi iyini i-ISF, isebenza kanjani, ukuthi udinga ukuyifaka nini, nokuthi kwenzekani uma uyifaka ngendlela engafanele. Sizoxoxa nangokuthi i-ISF isebenza kanjani nezinye izinqubo zokukhokha, ukuthi yiluphi ulwazi oludingayo ukuze ulungele, nokuthi umlingani wezokuthutha onekhono angakusiza kanjani ukuthi uhlale uthobela imithetho futhi ugweme izinkinga.

Ekugcineni, kufanele ube nokuqonda okucacile nokuwusizo kwe-ISF ekuthuthweni kwempahla futhi ukwazi ukuyenza ingxenye yemisebenzi yakho evamile esikhundleni sokuyibona njengesimo esiphuthumayo.

Kuyini i-ISF (Ifayela Lokuphepha Kwabangenisi)?

I-US Importer Security Filing, ngezinye izikhathi eyaziwa ngokuthi i-ISF noma i-“10+2,” iyimfuneko. Lesi yisidingo esivela ku-Customs and Border Protection (CBP) sempahla yasolwandle engena e-United States. Ngaphambi kokuba impahla ifakwe emkhunjini echwebeni langaphandle, imininingwane ethile yokuthumela kumele ithunyelwe ku-CBP nge-elekthronikhi.

Igama elithi “10+2” livela ku-:

Umngenisi (noma ummeleli wakhe) kumele anikeze izingcezu eziyi-10 zolwazi.
Umthwali wolwandle kumele anikeze izingcezu ezimbili zolwazi: uhlelo lokugcina umkhumbi kanye nemiyalezo yesimo sesitsha.

I-ISF isebenza cishe kuyo yonke imithwalo ethunyelwa e-US ngolwandle ngama-container. Inhloso eyinhloko ukuphepha: I-CBP ifuna ulwazi kusenesikhathi ukuze ihlole izinsongo futhi, uma kudingeka, ihlose ama-container ngaphambi kokuba alayishwe emkhunjini.

Ngamafuphi, i-ISF ivumela izikhulu zase-US ukuthi “zibone” ukuthi yini ezayo ngaphambi kokuba ihambe, esikhundleni sokulinda kuze kube yilapho izimpahla zifika echwebeni.

Kudingeka Nini ISF?

I-ISF iyadingeka ku:

Ukuthunyelwa kwamanye amazwe olwandle e-US, njengalawo aya emachwebeni ase-US kanye nalawo adlula e-US noma aya ezindaweni zokuhweba zangaphandle.
Impahla efakwe emakhonteyini, ehlanganisa kokubili ukuthunyelwa okuvamile kwe-FCL kanye ne-LCL.
Kuye ngohlobo lwempahla ethwala imithwalo ephukile kanye nendlela ephathwa ngayo, kungaba yingozi.

I-ISF ayidingeki ngokuvamile ezimpahleni ezinkulu njengowoyela noma okusanhlamvu, yize lokhu kukhululwa kuncane kakhulu futhi akuvame ukusebenza ekuthunyelweni okuvamile kwezentengiselwano noma kwezentengiselwano nge-inthanethi.

Ezinye izimpahla zokuhamba noma zokuthutha, njenge-FROB (impahla yangaphandle esele ebhodini, i-IE, kanye nokuthunyelwa kwe-T&E), zingasebenzisa inguqulo ekhethekile, encishisiwe ebizwa nge-ISF-5. Le nguqulo idinga izingcezu ezinhlanu zolwazi kuphela.

Kufanele ucabange ukuthi i-ISF iyasebenza uma uletha imikhiqizo e-US ngempahla yolwandle ukuze uyithengise, ngaphandle kokuthi umthengisi onelayisensi noma umhlinzeki wezokuthutha ekwazisa ngendlela ehlukile.

Isikhathi Sokufaka I-ISF kanye Nesikhathi

I-Milestone	Isikhathi Esijwayelekile vs Ukulayisha Imikhumbi	Umthelela we-ISF
Umhlinzeki uqinisekisa i-oda	Amaviki angu-2-4 ngaphambi kokulayisha	Qala ukuqoqa idatha ye-ISF
Ukubhukha kuqinisekisiwe ngenkampani yenethiwekhi	Amaviki angu-1-2 ngaphambi kokulayisha	Qinisekisa ukuthi zonke izinto zedatha ze-ISF ziyaziwa noma ziyaqhubeka
Ifayela le-ISF lithunyelwe	Okungenani amahora angama-24 ngaphambi kokulayisha	Isikhathi esinqunyiwe; ukufaka isicelo kumele kwamukelwe yi-CBP
Isitsha silayishwe emkhunjini	Usuku 0 (i-port yokuqala)	I-ISF ephuzile noma engekho ingabangela ukwenqatshwa komthwalo noma ukugcinwa kwawo
Umkhumbi ufika echwebeni lase-US	Emasontweni ama-2-5 ngemva kokulayisha	I-CBP ingahlola noma ibambe umthwalo uma kutholakala izinkinga ze-ISF

Ukuhlela okuhle kusho ukuthi uqoqa idatha ye-ISF isikhathi eside ngaphambi kosuku lokugcina lwamahora angama-24 esikhundleni sokulinda kuze kube umzuzu wokugcina ukuze uthole ulwazi lomhlinzeki.

Ubani Onomthwalo Wemfanelo We-ISF?

"Umthumeli we-ISF" ngumuntu noma inkampani enesibopho ngokomthetho. Lokhu kuvame ukufana nomthumeli werekhodi, nakuba kungenjalo ngaso sonke isikhathi. I-CBP ithi uMthumeli we-ISF ngumuntu noma inkampani eletha imikhiqizo e-US. Lona ngokuvamile umthengi noma umnikazi wezinto.

Empilweni yangempela, amaqembu amathathu avame ukusebenza ndawonye:

Umngenisi (noma umthengi) unikeza ulwazi lwezentengiselwano njengomthengi, umthengisi, amakhodi e-HTS, kanye nezwe asuka kulo.
Umhlinzeki noma umenzi unikeza ulwazi ngomenzi futhi angasiza ngemininingwane yokubeka izinto ezigcwala.
Umthengisi wezimpahla noma umthengisi wezimpahla uthumela i-ISF ngogesi ngezinhlelo ezivunyiwe (njenge-ABI/AMS) kumthengisi ongenisa impahla.

I-CBP isabona umngenisi njengonesibopho ekugcineni, noma ngabe umthengisi noma umlingani wezokuthutha uthumela i-ISF. Yingakho kubaluleke kakhulu ukusebenza nabantu abaziyo ukuthi benzani futhi babe nezinqubo zangaphakathi ezicacile.

Izinto Zedatha ze-ISF 10+2

Ukuqoqwa kwedatha "10+2" yikho okwenza i-ISF isebenze. Nasi uhlu lwezingcezu eziyi-10 zolwazi okumele umngenisi angenise efayeleni le-ISF ukuze kuthunyelwe njalo.

Isici Sedatha se-ISF	Ubani Ovame Ukukunikeza	Lokho Elikushoyo Ekusebenziseni
Ongenisa Inombolo Yerekhodi	Ngenisa	I-ID yentela/i-EIN noma enye inombolo ye-CBP yeqembu elinomthwalo wemfanelo kanye nokuthobela imithetho
Inombolo(ama) yoMthumeli	Umthumeli noma umthumeli wase-US	I-ID yentela yeqembu lase-US elamukela izimpahla
Igama Lomthengisi (Umnikazi) Nekheli	Umthengisi	Iqembu elithengisa noma eliphethe izimpahla ezingenisiwe
Igama lomthengi (umnikazi) kanye nekheli	Ngenisa	Iqembu elithenga noma eliphethe izimpahla
Igama kanye nekheli lomkhiqizi (noma umhlinzeki)	Umthengisi	Ibhizinisi elakhiqiza, lakhiqiza, noma elagcina ukuhlanganisa imikhiqizo
Igama nekheli lokuthumela	Umhlinzeki wokungenisa impahla noma wesitolo	Iqembu lokuqala lokulethwa e-US ngemuva kokukhishwa kwentela
Izwe azalelwe kulo	Umhlinzeki/umngenisi	Izwe lapho izimpahla zakhiqizwa khona noma zakhiqizwa khona
Inombolo ye-HTS (okungenani izinombolo ezingu-6)	Umthengisi/umthengisi	Ukuhlukaniswa kwezimpahla ngaphansi kwe-Harmonized Tariff Schedule
Indawo Yokufaka Isiqukathi	Umhlinzeki/indawo yokugcina impahla	Ikheli lendawo lapho izimpahla zalayishwa khona esitsheni
Igama nekheli le-Consolidator (Stuffer)	Umthumeli wezimpahla noma umhlinzeki	Iqembu eligcwalise isitsha noma elihlele ukugcwaliswa

Isithwali sinikeza izakhi "+2", okuyilezi:

Hlela ukuthi izitsha zizogcinwa kanjani emkhunjini.
Imiyalezo mayelana nesimo sesitsha (izibuyekezo mayelana nokuhamba kwaso kanye nesimo saso).

Ukuthola ulwazi oluthembekile emithonjeni eminingi ngesikhathi kuyinkinga enkulu kubathumeli abaningi, ikakhulukazi izinkampani ze-e-commerce ezisebenza nabaphakeli abaningi. Izizathu ezivamile zezinkinga ze-ISF amaphutha kumakhodi e-HTS, amakheli angaguquki kubakhiqizi, noma izinombolo zabathumeli ezingekho.

Indlela Inqubo Yokufaka I-ISF Esebenza Ngayo

Ngokombono womngenisi, inqubo yokufaka i-ISF ivame ukuba kanje:

Okokuqala, ubuza umhlinzeki ukuthi ufuna ukuthenga okuthile bese ubhuka ukuthunyelwa kwakho nenkampani yakho yokuthutha impahla noma inkampani yezokuthutha impahla. Kufanele futhi unikeze ulwazi lwakho oluhlobene ne-ISF ngaleso sikhathi. Lokhu kufaka phakathi inombolo yerekhodi yomthengisi wakho, imininingwane yomthengisi, kanye nekheli lapho ufuna izimpahla zithunyelwe khona.

Okulandelayo, umhlinzeki wakho unezela ingxenye yakhe esithombeni. Lokhu kufaka phakathi ulwazi ngomkhiqizi, incazelo efanele yezinto, izwe lemvelaphi, futhi ngezinye izikhathi indawo lapho bezolayisha khona isitsha uma bephethe lokho. Uma ukuthunyelwa kuyingxenye yesitsha se-LCL esihlanganisiwe, i-warehouse noma i-consolidator ingakunikeza ulwazi lokugcwalisa nokugcwalisa eduze nosuku lokulayisha.

Ngemva kwalokho, umthengisi wakho wezimpahla noma umthumeli wezimpahla usebenzisa lolu lwazi ukwenza i-ISF ohlelweni lwakhe. Bayahlola ukuthi zonke izinkambu ezidingekayo zigcwalisiwe, ukuthi amakhodi e-HTS alungile, nokuthi ukuthunyelwa ngakunye kunenombolo yebhili yokulayisha evumelekile. Le nombolo ixhumanisa i-ISF ne-manifest yomthwali kumakhompyutha e-CBP.

Ngemva kokuthi konke sekusethiwe, umthengisi noma umthumeli uthumela i-ISF ku-CBP nge-elekthronikhi, ngokuvamile nge-Automated Broker Interface (ABI) noma i-Automated Manifest System (AMS). I-CBP ithumela izimpawu zesimo emuva ezisho ukuthi isicelo samukelwe, senqatshiwe, noma sidinga ukulungiswa.

Uma uthola amaphutha noma ulwazi olungekho ngemva kokufaka isicelo, ungashintsha i-ISF. Kodwa-ke, kufanele ukwenze lokhu ngaphambi kokuba ukuthunyelwa kufike echwebeni lase-US, futhi kungcono kakhulu uma nje usunolwazi olusha.

Imiphumela ye-ISF Esephuzile, Engaphelele, noma Engalungile

Kufanele wenze i-ISF. I-CBP inezindlela eziningi zokuqinisekisa ukuthi abantu bayayilandela imithetho, futhi izinhlawulo zingaba nzima.

Enye yezingozi ezisobala kakhulu ukulahlekelwa yimali. Ngezenzo ezimbi kakhulu, i-CBP ingakhokhisa imali efinyelela ku-$5,000 ngomonakalo wokwephulwa ngakunye, futhi kungaba nokwephulwa okungaphezu kokukodwa ngokuthunyelwa ngakunye (isibonelo, ukungafaki nhlobo, ukufaka sekwephuzile, noma ukufaka ngendlela engafanele).

Ukubambezeleka kokusebenza kubi ngokufanayo, ikakhulukazi ezinhlanganweni ze-e-commerce kanye nezokudayisa okumele zigcine impahla yazo ihamba ngokushesha. I-ISF embi ingabangela ukugcinwa, ukuhlolwa, noma ukwenqaba ukulayisha isitsha lapho sivela khona. Lapho iphakheji ifika e-US, i-CBP ingase ifune ukubheka izimpahla ngokucophelela. Lokhu kuvame ukuthatha isikhathi esiningi futhi kubize kakhulu.

Kukhona futhi amathuba ezinkinga zebhondi. Ibhondi kumele isekele amaphepha e-ISF. Lokhu kungaba ibhondi eqhubekayo ehlanganisa konke ukungenisa noma ibhondi ye-ISF yokuthengiselana okukodwa. Uma wephula imithetho izikhathi ezingaphezu kwesisodwa, ungalahlekelwa yibhondi yakho noma kudingeke ubhekane ne-CBP eduze kakhulu nangokuphathwa okunzima.

Okokugcina, ukungalandeli imithetho ye-ISF kuyalimaza iphrofayili yakho yonke yamasiko. Abangenisi bezimpahla baphoqelekile ukusebenzisa "ukunakekela okunengqondo" lapho benikeza ulwazi oluphelele nolunembile, futhi i-ISF ingenye yemisebenzi enjalo.

I-ISF vs Ukungena Kwekhasimende vs I-AMS: Indlela Ezihambisana Ngayo

I-ISF iyingxenye eyodwa nje yephazili yokungenisa, ngakho-ke kuyasiza ukwazi ukuthi ifanelana kanjani nezinye izinhlobo.

Ngaphambi kokuba uhambe, udinga ukufaka i-ISF. Umgomo wayo oyinhloko ukuvumela i-CBP ukuthi ibone imithwalo yasolwandle ifika isikhathi eside ngaphambi kokuba ilayishwe. Ayithumeli imithwalo ukuze ingene noma ithole imithwalo ngokwayo.

Ukungena kwempahla yangokwezifiso, okuvame ukuxhunyaniswa neFomu le-CBP 3461/7501, kuyidokhumenti esemthethweni evumela izimpahla ukuthi zingene emakethe yase-US. Inikeza ulwazi olwengeziwe mayelana nenani, ukuhlukaniswa, imvelaphi, kanye nenkokhelo yentela, futhi ngokuvamile ifakwa ngemva kokuba ukuthunyelwa sekulayishiwe futhi sekusendleleni noma lapho kufika.

Uhlelo lwe-Automated Manifest System (AMS) lunakekela idatha ye-carrier manifest futhi luxhumanisa ulwazi lomthwali mayelana nokuthunyelwa namaphepha omthumeli. Inombolo yebhili yokulayisha yiyo exhumanisa i-ISF, i-AMS, kanye nokungena kwentela.

Ukuze impahla ihambe kahle:

Kufanele ufake i-ISF ngaphambi kokuthi ulayishe.
I-manifest yomthwali (i-AMS) kumele ifane ne-ISF futhi ibe yilungile.
Okufakiwe kwentela kumele kufane nedatha ye-ISF kanye ne-AMS.

Uma lezi zinhlelo ezintathu zingasebenzi ndawonye, i-CBP ivame ukumisa okwesikhashana ukuthunyelwa kwezimpahla bese ibuza imibuzo.

Isibonelo Esilula Se-ISF Esebenzayo

Cabanga ngesitolo esiku-inthanethi esiphakathi nendawo e-US esithenga izesekeli ze-elekthronikhi zabathengi emafektri aseShenzhen, eShayina, bese sizithumela endaweni yokugcina impahla engu-3PL eCalifornia.

Le nkampani ibhukha impahla ye-FCL engamafidi angu-40 esuka eShenzhen iya eLos Angeles. Umthengisi wabo wempahla ucela idatha ye-ISF ngokushesha nje lapho ukubhukha sekuqinisekisiwe. Umthengisi unikeza i-US The EIN yakhe, igama le-California 3PL, kanye nohlu lwemikhiqizo enamakhodi ayo e-HS kanye namazwe avela kuwo.

Ifektri eShenzhen ihlola ikheli lomkhiqizi, iqinisekise ukuthi i-invoyisi yezentengiselwano ihambisana namakhodi e-HS, futhi itshela inkampani yokuthumela impahla ukuthi izimpahla zizopakishwa kuphi, okuyindlu yokugcina impahla yefektri. Kulesi simo, ulwazi mayelana ne-consolidator kulula ukuluqonda ngoba umthumeli oyedwa kuphela osebenzisa isitsha.

Umthumeli uthola inombolo yokugcina yenombolo yomthwalo evela kumthwali bese enza i-ISF. Bese beyithumela ku-CBP amahora angaphezu kwama-24 ngaphambi kokulayisha. I-CBP iyayamukela ifayili, futhi azikho ezinye izibambiso zokuphepha.

Umthumeli ufaka ukungena kwempahla yamakhasimende uma umkhumbi usuhambile futhi uwela iPacific. Isitsha siyathululwa eLos Angeles, sidlula empahla yamakhasimende ngaphandle kokuhlolwa okwengeziwe, futhi sithunyelwa e-3PL warehouse ngesikhathi ngoba ulwazi lwe-ISF, i-bill of lading, kanye nedatha yokungena konke kuyahambisana.

Manje cabanga ngokuthunyelwa okufanayo, kodwa umngenisi ulinda kuze kube usuku lokulayisha ukuze anikeze idatha ye-ISF, ifektri isusa indawo yokufaka izinto ngaphandle kokutshela muntu, futhi amakhodi e-HS ku-invoyisi yezentengiselwano kanye ne-ISF awafani. Umphumela wokugcina mhlawumbe ukufakwa sekwephuzile, izinguquko, ukuhlolwa okwengeziwe, futhi mhlawumbe ngisho nokuhlolwa okubizayo noma ukubanjwa echwebeni, konke lokhu kungenxa yezinkinga ebezingavinjelwa ngokuhleleka okukhulu nokuxhumana.

Imikhuba Emihle Kakhulu Yokuthobela Imithetho Ye-ISF

Akukhona ngobuqhawe obukhona kanye kuphela; kumayelana nezinqubo ezenza ukuthobela imithetho ye-ISF kusebenze. Imikhuba embalwa elula ingenza umehluko omkhulu.

Into ebalulekile okufanele uyenze ukuqinisekisa ukuthi yonke idatha oyithola kubaphakeli iyafana. Sebenzisa ithempulethi ehlanganisa zonke izinkambu ezibalulekile ku-ISF, njengamagama namakheli asemthethweni aphelele, amakhodi e-HS, izwe odabuka kulo, kanye nezincazelo zomkhiqizo ezicacile. Unciphisa amathuba okuphuthelwa yinkambu ebalulekile uma konke ukuthunyelwa kunefomethi efanayo.

Ukuvumelanisa imisebenzi yakho yokuthengisa, yokuthenga, kanye neyezokuthutha kungenye into enhle ongayenza. Uma amaqembu ezokuthutha esheshe athole ulwazi ngama-oda, kulapho eba nesikhathi esiningi sokuqoqa ulwazi nokugcwalisa i-ISF ngaphambi kosuku lokugcina. Uma ukwazi, xhumanisa izinhlelo zakho zokuphathwa kwama-oda noma ze-ERP nepulatifomu yomthengisi wakho. Lokhu kungasiza ekuzenzekeleni ukwabelana ngedatha futhi kunciphise isidingo sokuthayipha izinto futhi, okuyimbangela enkulu yamaphutha.

Kufanele futhi uqiniseke ukuthi ubunikazi bucacile ngaphakathi kwenkampani. Khetha ukuthi ubani enhlanganweni yakho ophethe i-ISF. Ingabe ungumxhumanisi wezokuthutha, ithimba lokuthobela imithetho yentela, noma umlingani wangaphandle? Njalo thumela iziqinisekiso zokubhukha kanye namadokhumenti omhlinzeki kulowo muntu noma ithimba kusenesikhathi ukuze bathathe isinyathelo.

Okokugcina, faka i-ISF ezinkontilekeni zakho kanye nemiyalelo yabahlinzeki. Yenza kucace ukuthi abahlinzeki kumele banikeze ulwazi olunembile mayelana nomenzi, uhlu lokupakisha ngesikhathi, kanye nemiyalelo mayelana nokuthi uzofaka kuphi izinto. Uma uthumela i-LCL noma wenza ukuhlanganiswa okuyinkimbinkimbi, qiniseka ukuthi i-forwarder yakho iyakutshela ukuthi idatha yokuhlanganisa kanye nokugcwalisa izotholakala nini futhi kanjani nokuthi izinguquko zizokwenziwa kanjani.

Uma wonke umuntu azi ukuthi yini okudingeka ayenze, i-ISF iba yingxenye evamile yenqubo esikhundleni sokujaha ngomzuzu wokugcina.

Indlela Ukuthunyelwa Kwe-Topway Okusekela Ngayo Ukuthunyelwa Kwakho Kwe-ISF Nolwandle

Kulula ukulandela imithetho ye-ISF uma usebenzelana nomlingani wezokuthutha owaziyo ukuthi uhulumeni wase-US ulindeleni nokuthi ukuthunyelwa kwempahla kusuka eShayina nakwezinye izikhungo ezinkulu zezimboni kusebenza kanjani.

I-Topway Shipping, eseShenzhen, eShayina, ibilokhu igxile kuleyo nxanxathela kusukela ngo-2010. Le nhlangano inguchwepheshe kwezokuthutha kwe-e-commerce ngaphesheya kwemingcele futhi inolwazi oluningi lokudlulisa izinto ezivela kubahlinzeki baseShayina ziye kumakhasimende nasezindaweni zokugcina impahla e-US nakwamanye amazwe.

Ithimba labasunguli lineminyaka engaphezu kwengu-15 yesipiliyoni ekuthuthweni kwempahla kwamanye amazwe kanye nokususwa kwempahla yamasiko, ligxile ekuthuthweni kwezinto e-US naseShayina. Lobo buchwepheshe buwusizo kakhulu kwi-ISF, lapho idatha ethembekile, ukusebenza nezimboni endaweni, kanye nokuxhumana nabathengisi base-US ngesikhathi konke kuhlangana ndawonye.

I-Topway Shipping inikeza izinsizakalo kulo lonke uchungechunge lwezokuthutha:

Okokuqala, izimpahla zithunyelwa zivela ezimbonini nasezindaweni zokuhlanganisa eShayina ziye emachwebeni avela kuwo.
Sinikeza izinsizakalo zokuthutha ulwandle eziguquguqukayo ezithwala umthwalo ogcwele (i-FCL) kanye nomthwalo ongaphansi kwesitsha (i-LCL) kusuka eShayina kuya emachwebeni amakhulu emhlabeni jikelele, kufaka phakathi amachweba abalulekile ase-US.
Overseas kugcinwa izixazululo ezenza kube lula ukwamukela, ukugcina, nokucubungula izimpahla eduze kwamakhasimende.
Siza ngokususwa kwentela, njengokuxhumanisa amafayela e-ISF kanye namanye amaphepha okungenisa e-US ngokusebenzisa abalingani bomthengisi abathembekile.
Izindlela zokulethwa kwe-e-commerce ezisebenza ngokushesha ezixhumanisa imithwalo yolwandle namanethiwekhi okusabalalisa amaphasela kanye nawendawo.

I-Topway Shipping ingasiza abathumeli ukuthola ulwazi abaludingayo lwe-ISF ngesikhathi, ukunciphisa amaphutha okungadingeki enzeke, futhi kuqinisekiswe ukuthi ukuthobela imithetho kuyingxenye yohlelo olukhulu noluguquguqukayo lwezokuthutha ngoba lusezimpambanweni zokuphathwa kwabaphakeli, ezokuthutha olwandle, kanye nokugcwaliseka kwezentengiselwano ze-inthanethi ezansi.

Uma uthumela isitsha sakho sokuqala e-US noma uphatha ukugeleza okuqhubekayo kokuthunyelwa kwe-FCL kanye ne-LCL emigqeni eminingi yemikhiqizo, ukusebenza nenkampani enolwazi njenge-Topway Shipping kungenza i-ISF ibe yinto evamile nethembekile yeketanga lakho lokuhlinzeka esikhundleni sengozi.

Isiphetho

I-ISF, emele i-Importer Security Filing, ingaphezu nje kwegama elivela ekuxhumaneni ngemikhumbi. Ngokuthunyelwa kwezimpahla zasolwandle e-United States, kuyisidingo esiyisisekelo sokuphepha ukuthi izikhulu zentela zazi ukuthi yini ezayo ngaphambi kokuba ilayishwe emkhunjini.

I-ISF inemiphumela ecacile newusizo kubangenisi, ikakhulukazi amabhizinisi e-commerce akhula ngokushesha. Idinga ukufakwa okungenani amahora angama-24 ngaphambi kokulayisha echwebeni langaphandle, futhi kuncike ekutholeni ulwazi olunembile kubantu abaningi abahlukene. Uma ungayilandeli imithetho, ungabhekana nezinhlawulo, ukubambezeleka, kanye nokuhlolwa okwengeziwe. I-ISF kulula ukubhekana nayo uma uyibheka njengengxenye yenqubo yakho evamile esikhundleni sesithiyo.

Ungaqinisekisa ukuthi ukuthobela kwakho i-ISF kuthembekile ngokwazi izinto zedatha ze-10+2, ukucacisa ukuthi ubani ophethe ulwazi ngalunye, nokudala imisebenzi ephindaphindwayo nabaphakeli bakho, abadayisi, kanye nabalingani bezokuthutha. Ukusebenzisa amathempulethi, ukuxhuma izinhlelo, nokuqinisekisa ukuthi wonke umuntu uyazi ukuthi ubani ophethe lokho konke kusiza ekunciphiseni ubungozi nokugcina umthwalo wakho uhamba.

I-ISF iyingxenye ebalulekile yokuxhumanisa indawo yakho yokukhiqiza namachweba ase-US, futhi ekugcineni, nabathengi bakho bokugcina. Lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu ezweni lapho ukubonakala kweketanga lokuhlinzeka kanye nokuphepha kuba kubaluleke kakhulu. Uma unolwazi olufanele futhi usebenza nomlingani wezokuthutha onolwazi njengeTopway Shipping, i-ISF iba yinto eyodwa ongayilawula esikhundleni sento ekubusayo.

Imibuzo Evame Ukubuzwa

Q: I-ISF imele ukuthini ekuthunyelweni kwezimpahla?
A: I-ISF imele i-Importer Security Filing. Kungumthetho e-US Customs and Border Protection udinga ukuthunyelwa olwandle okuza e-US ukuze kwenziwe lokhu. Ngaphambi kokuba izimpahla zifakwe emkhunjini echwebeni langaphandle, abathumeli (noma ama-ejenti abo) kumele bathumele ulwazi oluthile lokuthunyelwa nge-elekthronikhi.

Q: Kufanele i-ISF ifakwe nini?
A: Ukuthunyelwa olwandle okuvamile okunamakhonteyina, i-ISF kumele ifakwe okungenani amahora angama-24 ngaphambi kokuba imikhiqizo ilayishwe emkhunjini echwebeni langaphandle. Akudingeki ifakwe amahora angama-24 ngaphambi kokuba izinto zifike e-US. Kungcono ukufaka kusenesikhathi ukuze ube nesikhathi sokulungisa noma yimaphi amaphutha ngaphambi kosuku lokugcina.
