An international customs document that provides duty & tax-free customs clearance for temporary exports into foreign countries, ATA Carnets, simplify entry by eliminating the need for a financial guarantee, temporary import bond or bank guarantee. They are recognized in over 100 destinations for virtually all types of goods, whether hand-carried or cargo-shipped.
Why would someone choose an ATA Carnet over the other options available for temporary exportation? As the only standardized international customs document, an ATA Carnet offers the purchaser peace of mind. Plus, there are a variety of other unique benefits as well:
- Obtaining a Carnet is quick and easy because it is done in advance in the U.S., using U.S. currency
- An ATA Carnet for temporary exports is usually the most cost effective option
- A Carnet is valid for 12 months and covers an unlimited amount of entries/exits within that one year period to multiple countries
