APHIS Transitioning to Electronic-Only Payments

APHIS is moving to electronic-only payment methods, which will affect how importers and brokers submit fees for APHIS-related inspections and permits at the border. Paper or check-based payment options are being phased out.

Our Position

If your company is still submitting paper payments for APHIS fees, now is the time to enroll in the electronic payment system — we can help coordinate the transition to avoid delays at port.

AI-assisted summary of a published CBP, USITC or Federal Register notice, with JFS CHB's position on it. For awareness only — always verify against the official notice before acting. Our position is general commentary on a published notice, not legal advice and not a binding opinion on any shipment. Nothing here creates a broker-client relationship or a duty of care, and it is not a substitute for a ruling, a licensed review of your facts, or the official notice itself.
