C-TPAT Supply Chain Security

What is C-TPAT?

The Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) is a voluntary United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) programme that strengthens international supply chains and improves US border security. It is a key requirement for exporters supplying US buyers.

Who Needs C-TPAT?

Bangladesh garment factories and exporters supplying to United States importers are increasingly required to demonstrate C-TPAT compliance as a condition of business. Many major US retailers and brands mandate it across their supply chains.

C-TPAT Requirements

• Physical security of factory premises
• Access controls and visitor management
• Personnel security — background screening
• Procedural security and conveyance security
• Information technology security
• Business partner requirements
• Agricultural security (where applicable)
