Foreign Trade Zone

A Foreign-Trade Zone is a port designated by the government for duty-free entry of any non-prohibited good.  Goods can be imported without having to go through formal customs entry procedures or paying imported duties. Duties are imposed only when goods pass from the Foreign-Trade Zone into the country.

 

GJA has access to Foreign Trade Zones through the Jackson-Evers International Airport.
