ISF and customs entry filing software
Customs, in focus.
Customs filing software that shows which ISF or entry needs you now. File ISF-10, ISF-5, entry summaries (7501) and cargo release (3461) with CBP from one inbox, check every draft before it goes, and see the ISF price on this website.
20 minutes on your kind of shipments. We set your team up after.
Where filings go wrong
You know these screens.
Most filing teams track house bills in a spreadsheet, file from a vendor screen and read CBP messages in email. The filing that's due tomorrow is in there somewhere. Meanwhile the rules keep moving and the ISF deadline stays exactly where it was.
- in liquidated damages per ISF violation. On a consolidation, each house bill counts.

The inbox with sample data. Each ISF deadline is 24 hours before lading (19 CFR 149.2(b)).
An inbox for US customs, not another dashboard
The inbox ranks itself.
Open work across ISF, entry and liquidation sits in one list, ordered by urgency. Each ISF has a deadline 24 hours before lading, and you get alerts at 72, 48 and 24 hours before it.
CBP's response shows on each filing, so you can see what was accepted, what was rejected and what is still waiting.

Pre-filing checks
Catch it before CBP does.
Every draft runs through rule-based checks before you can submit it. Want a second read? Run an AI review on any draft. If CBP still rejects the filing, the error comes back in plain English with numbered steps to fix it.
The flags around the filing
- New ADD/CVD orders pulled from the Federal Register daily
- Possible UFLPA exposure flagged, plus the agencies (FDA, USDA-APHIS, EPA, FCC) that may own an HTS code
- HTS code suggestions with alternatives and the reasoning behind them
MyCargoLens flags and explains. You or your broker make the call.

Straight answers.
MyCargoLens files them with CBP for you. You review and submit each one from your account.
No. MyCargoLens is software for importers, forwarders, NVOCCs and brokers. You or your broker stay in charge of advice and classification decisions.
ISF-10, ISF-5, entry summaries (7501) and cargo release (3461), plus manifest (MBOL) queries. In-bond (7512), FTZ, drawback and AES aren't available today, and we don't sell ISF bonds.
The importer of record, whoever transmits the filing. That's why it helps to see and check every ISF and entry you file before it goes to CBP.
ISF is $45 per accepted ISF, with no monthly fee. You're charged only when CBP accepts. For customs entry, talk to us on a demo. NVOCCs, forwarders and brokers filing at volume get volume pricing on request.
