Proposed Rules

Customs and Border Protection has issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to amend the Customs regulations to require continuing education for individual customs broker license holders and to create a framework for administering this requirement.

By requiring individual brokers to remain knowledgeable about the customs and international trade industry, CBP’s proposal would enhance professionalism and competency within the brokerage industry.

The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) suggests the requirement of individual brokers to complete at least 36 continuing education credits per triennial period, with limited exceptions.
