| Dear Vantec World Transport (USA), Inc. Service Provider |
| |
| Vantec World Transport (USA), Inc. is currently approved from U.S. Customs to participate in the C-TPAT (Customs - Trade Partnership Against Terrorism) program as an air and ocean consolidator and as a U.S. Customs Broker. Our SVI Numbers are as follows: US. Custom Broker: vanBro00638 (Case sensitive) Consolidator: tokCon01406 (Case sensitive) |
| |
| C-TPAT is a joint Government – Business initiative to build cooperative relationships that will strengthen overall supply chain and border security. |
| |
| For further information regarding C-TPAT, please visit U.S. Customs website at: www.customs.gov/xp/cgov/import/commercial_enforcement/ctpat/fact_sheet.xml |
| |
| In order for us to remain C-TPAT compliant it is a requirement that we ensure that each step of our supply chain have security procedures in place. This includes our overseas partners, their service providers and our local service providers here in the U.S.A. |
| |
| This is where we need your cooperation. Unless each part of the supply chain has security measures in place that cover procedural security, physical security, personnel security, education and training, access controls, manifest procedures and conveyance security, our global supply chain will have weaknesses. |
| |
| Therefore the partners we use to provide trucking, warehousing, crating, transportation, storage, etc., must have their own physical and procedural security procedures in place. |
| |
| For those who do not, we will not be able to use your services for our customers who require C-TPAT approved vendors. This is the direction that the global trade community is heading. |
| |
| In order for us to evaluate your security measures, we are asking you to fill out our simple online questionnaire, and to fax it to our HDQ office Attn: Randy Shiosaki at (310) 525-2959. |
| |
| If you have any questions regarding C-TPAT or the questionnaire, we kindly ask you to contact our Security Manager in Los Angeles. His contact information is: |
