Brokers already compile this information through their normal course of business, and they can report the information to CBP in any format they choose. CBP assumes data breaches are rare but includes this requirement as a preventive measure. CBP assumes this provision has virtually no cost to the brokers due to the infrequency of data breaches. CBP will use this information in its targeting of imports for inspection, which will help make imports safer. As a result of this rule, the options above pertaining to district permits will no longer exist and all permitted brokers will have to get a single national permit to conduct customs business. That means that brokers will pay the $100 permit application fee and receive a single national permit; brokers who, absent this rule, paid to hold multiple district permits will save the $100 district permit fee for each additional permit.
