AGREEMENT ON PRESHIPMENT INSPECTIONAgreement on Preshipment Inspection • September 18th, 2013
Contract Type FiledSeptember 18th, 2013United States exporters have been subjected to a growing number of preshipment inspection requirements, which have not been notified to the Committee on Customs Valuation. We are now compelled to raise with Indonesia through the Committee the ever growing list of products that are subject to preshipment inspection or as it is frequently referred to in Indonesia's laws and regulations, "surveys". During its Trade Policy Review earlier this year, Indonesia indicated that the purpose of these "surveys" is to "verify the quality, quantity, price and customs classification of goods to be exported to Indonesia."
