TVI Logistics Is Invited To Visit South Korea To Meet Automotive Suppliers and expresses great gratitude to the Government of South Korea for inviting us to their remarkable nation to specifically meet with Korean automotive suppliers in the city of Seoul.

The line up of diligent companies in Goyang was impressive and extremely well-organized. Our team was delighted to teach suppliers how to facilitate logistics between US and Korea, while reducing total landed costs. We made great business connections and are very pleased to serve as a helpful resource to Korean auto suppliers to facilitate imports and exports through the use of our Public Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) and leveraging our cost effective transportation rates. Our bonded warehouse, re-packaging, distribution and assembly services can certainly prove useful to Korean auto suppliers entering the US market.

Duty Deferral Via The Use of a Foreign Trade Zone -FTZ & Distribution Services in Michigan

A Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) like TVI Logistics is a government designated facility that allows duties & taxes to be deferred until the goods leave the facility. Supervised by U.S. Customs, items can be imported into the zone, and then stored, kitted, assembled or otherwise modified. Then when the goods leave the trade zone, that’s when duties are charged. These zones were set up by the Federal Government to “even the playing field” and offset advantages that some overseas suppliers have in the customs process. A Foreign Trade Zone is a secure area under the supervision of the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP). FTZs are considered to be outside of the Customs territory of the United States for the purposes of payment of duty. Such facilities were created for the purpose of increasing global trade and function under the Foreign- Trade Zones Act of 1934, (FTZ Act) as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the FTZ Board’s regulations (15 C.F.R. 400).
