Strategic Bonded Warehouse

When the road gets complicated, our defense keeps you moving forward.

Strategic Bonded Warehouse

The Strategic Bonded Warehouse  is a special customs regime that provides significant tax and operational advantages for companies engaged in import, export, and international trade. This designation allows businesses to temporarily store, transform, distribute, and manage goods in a duty-free zone, optimizing supply chain efficiency and reducing tax burdens.

At Lexnova USA, we provide specialized legal and compliance services to help businesses obtain and operate under RFE status, ensuring compliance with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations, Foreign Trade Zones (FTZ) policies, and duty deferral programs.

Duty Deferral & Tax Savings

RFE allows businesses to defer customs duties and taxes on imported goods until they leave the zone, improving cash flow and reducing operational costs.

Operational Flexibility

Companies can store, manufacture, process, or assemble goods within the RFE without incurring immediate customs duties, enhancing supply chain agility.

Nearshoring & Trade Optimization

RFE is ideal for businesses leveraging nearshoring strategies, providing a competitive advantage by streamlining cross-border logistics and reducing import/export costs.

Regulatory Compliance & Trade Security

We ensure businesses comply with CBP regulations, Foreign Trade Zone requirements, and international trade laws, mitigating legal risks and ensuring smooth operations.

Customs & Logistics Efficiency

RFE facilitates efficient customs processing, reducing delays and improving inventory management for international trade operations.
