Bonded vs FTZ

Bonded facilities defer duty until entry; FTZs can avoid or reduce duty on re-export and enable specific processing. Your product, volumes, and dwell determine the value.

Decision checklist

  • Expected dwell time & turns
  • Re-export ratio & processing needs
  • Compliance resources and record-keeping
