A Foreign-Trade Zone is a designated area within the United States that, for customs purposes, is treated as being outside U.S. commerce. Companies operating within an approved FTZ site or subzone may defer, reduce, or in some cases eliminate customs duties on imported merchandise, depending on how that merchandise is used, stored, or processed before entering U.S. commerce. This can be relevant to importers, manufacturers, and distributors with warehousing, assembly, or production operations located within FTZ 064's service area.
Businesses considering FTZ status for a specific facility in this region generally work with a customs broker or an FTZ compliance consultant to evaluate whether their operation fits program requirements and to prepare the paperwork needed for site or subzone designation. The Jacksonville Port Authority, as grantee, oversees the zone's general framework, while individual companies must still pursue their own usage or subzone approval through the applicable federal process. This listing provides factual identification of the zone; it does not represent an offer of services or approval.
