AES Filing
The Automated Export System (AES) is the system used by U.S. exporters to electronically declare their international exports, known as Electronic Export Information (EEI), to the Census Bureau to help compile U.S. export and trade statistics.
If the customer purchasing your goods is making their own transportation arrangements, you will still need to file electronic export information (EEI) with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for any individual cargo shipment item with a value for more than USD 2,500.00. This must be done at least 24 hours prior to export, but more often than not at least 4-5 days in advance of the departure. We are licensed by the Federal Maritime Commission and are bonded agents with CBP. As such, we are trained and certified to do any and all of your EEIs through the U.S. Census AES system. Farber and Company can file this for you quickly and easily with some simple documentation from you, including:
