The Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) is a voluntary supply chain security program led by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and focused on improving the security of private companies' supply chains with respect to terrorism. The program was launched in November 2001 with seven initial participants, all large U.S. companies. As of December 1, 2014, the program has 10,854 members.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=cbp.gov )〕 The 4,315 importers in the program account for approximately 54% of the value of all merchandise imported into the U.S. Companies who achieve C-TPAT certification must have a documented process for determining and alleviating risk throughout their international supply chain. This allows companies to be considered low risk, resulting in expedited processing of their cargo, including fewer Customs examinations. ==Types of participants in C-TPAT== * U.S. importers of record * U.S./Canada and U.S./Mexico cross-border highway carriers * Mexico Long Haul Carriers * Rail, sea, and air carriers * U.S. marine port authority and terminal operators * Consolidators (U.S. air freight consolidators, ocean transportation intermediaries and non-vessel operating common carriers) * Mexican and Canadian manufacturers * Certain invited foreign manufacturers * Licensed U.S. customs brokers * Third Party Logistics Providers * Exporters 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
