LAX Air Centralized Examination Station Solicitation Updated

CBP has issued an update to its solicitation for a Centralized Examination Station (CES) serving Los Angeles air cargo, affecting where physical examinations of air freight will be conducted at LAX. Changes to CES designations can affect examination timelines and drayage logistics for importers routing cargo through LAX.

Our Position

We read CES solicitation updates as operationally material for LAX air-cargo importers because a change in designated examination facility directly affects freight release timelines and third-party examination costs. Our position is that importers with time-sensitive air shipments through LAX should monitor the final CES award closely.
