About The Webinar

Foreign-trade zones are an effective tool for manufacturers and importers to avoid, reduce, or defer duties. FTZs also offer unique benefits that can help strengthen global supply chains for biopharma and life sciences companies, which can use them for purposes like labeling and testing products, preparing for a drug launch, and receiving returned product for analysis.

This webinar explores how to determine whether an FTZ is a practical option for your business and how to set one up and operate it. In addition, the following topics will be discussed with real-life examples from the biopharma and life sciences industry.

  • reducing, eliminating, and deferring duties in an FTZ
  • general-purpose zones vs. subzones or usage-driven sites
  • permitted activities
  • FTZ benefits
  • privileged foreign, non-privileged foreign, and zone-restricted merchandise
  • status of goods entering an FTZ
  • best compliance practices
