| 摘要： | The Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) program, originally created during the Great Depression (1934), was established by Congress to meet tariff challenges faced by U.S. importers in order to help level the global playing field and support competitiveness of companies employing U.S. workers. Since its inception, Congress continued to adapt the program to meet other inequities faced by companies in the United States, always with employment and economic prosperity in mind. And today, more and more firms are using the program to address supply chain issues and economic factors. The foundation of the program is the idea that a zone is created around a facility that establishes the location to be outside of U.S. commerce. As such, goods from both domestic and foreign suppliers can be brought into a facility, and there is no duty paid on the goods sourced from non-U.S. locations until those goods are removed from the zone destined for a location within U.S. commerce. |
