ATF Proposes Expanded CBW Exclusion from Firearm Import Rules in FTZs and Bonded Warehouses
ATF proposes amending its definition of 'importation' under the GCA and NFA to extend existing FTZ import-requirement exclusions to customs-bonded warehouses, while also removing the restriction limiting such treatment to storage-only activities. The rule does not waive applicable customs requirements for firearms transiting these facilities.
