What We Do
Trusted Trader Partnership
CTPAT (Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism) is a voluntary public-private sector partnership program where CBP works with the trade community to strengthen the security of the international supply chain. CTPAT members are considered low-risk, receiving expedited processing and fewer inspections.
DM Customs Brokerage is itself a CTPAT-certified partner. We help our clients understand the program requirements, prepare their applications, implement the necessary security measures, and maintain ongoing compliance to retain their trusted trader status.
