· Texas Border Business
On June 3, 2026, President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order aimed at overhauling U.S. customs enforcement to enhance compliance with federal trade laws. The order highlights the importance of customs enforcement for national security and the economy, addressing issues like undervalued imports and duty evasion. The Department of Homeland Security has 180 days to revise importer eligibility, which will include stricter bonding and disclosure requirements. Additionally, Customs and Border Protection will enforce new regulations for foreign importers and increase audits and penalties for non-compliance. A report on the order's effectiveness is due within a year.
