Bill overview
The FIGHTING for America Act of 2024 aims to enhance transparency and enforcement related to the de minimis exemption for low-value imports. Specifically, it requires increased documentation and information from importers seeking this exemption, particularly regarding the origin and sale of goods, and strengthens customs’ ability to scrutinize shipments. The bill also addresses concerns about illicit goods, particularly fentanyl, by prioritizing investigations of shipments abusing the exemption and clarifies penalties for fraudulent entries. Finally, it modifies customs fees and requires a report on the use of administrative exemptions.
