The FDA’s import program is complex, detailed and undergoes changes without much notice to the public. The import database used by the FDA includes extensive data about foreign manufacturers, individual establishments and the products they typically sell in the U.S. This means foreign manufacturers and exporters must complete specific steps before they can start sending products to U.S. If the steps are not followed and the required information submitted, your business with the U.S. stops right there. FDA can slow the importing process by issuing notice of action (NOA) which says whether your product is released or being detained. You need to understand what your “detention” means and what you should do. You must either correct the problem, destroy the product or send it outside of U.S. jurisdiction. Otherwise, the fines add up fast.
Background:
The FDA continues to update its import program to better manage new problems and to use new procedures that make the process more efficient. The FDA and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) now require the use of computer programs to submit entry data that requires precise coding. The program acts in real time for the exchange of incoming and outgoing data with you and your import broker. When and how you manage the computer programs make a significant difference in the success of your import operations and net profits. When you get into trouble, you must know what to do and resolve problems quickly.
