US CBP Reimbursable Services Program – RSP

United States Customs and Border Protection (US CBP) has notified JAXPORT that as of Sunday, Jan. 5, 2020, CBP operational hours on JAXPORT facilities will be 7 a.m. to 12 a.m. (midnight) daily.

To allocate resources when needed, JAXPORT has partnered with US CBP to activate their Reimbursable Services Program. This will allow tenants who need to operate outside of these hours an opportunity to pay for US CBP after hours services, when approved and available, to facilitate operations.

---

Effective Jan. 5, 2020, vessels arriving at JAXPORT terminals — DIRECTLY FROM FOREIGN PORTS — will not be cleared for operations by US CBP between the hours of 12 a.m. (midnight) to 7 a.m.

Effective Jan. 5, 2020, all containerized cargo (to include empty containers) and closed sided over-the-road cargo trailers will not be allowed to exit JAXPORT terminals between the hours of 11:45 p.m. to 7 a.m.

JAXPORT terminal operators and JAXPORT stakeholders, with an established JAXPORT credit invoicing account, may request US CBP after hours services through the Reimbursable Services Program.

• Costs for the service will vary, due to the type of service requested and US CBP manpower requirements.
