How to Apply
To prepare any request to the FTZ Board, use the formats provided on this website.
Note: If you are a company that wishes to conduct production activity under FTZ procedures, you will need both FTZ designation of your facility (generally subzone or usage-driven site) as well as production authority. Please see the FTZ Production Center for more information on what constitutes “production”.
All requests (and related communications) to the FTZ Board should come from - or be copied (CC’d) to - the zone’s grantee. The FTZ Staff is unable to review such documents unless the grantee has been included in the communication.
Application documents should be sent to: ftz@trade.gov
The application letter should be addressed to: Executive Secretary, Foreign-Trade Zones Board, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Ave., NW, Room 21013, Washington, DC 20230
