Continuous Bond
Category: Customs
Also searched as: Continuous Bond
Definition (plain English)
An annual customs bond that can cover multiple entries for an importer during its effective period.
Why it matters commercially
Continuous bonds reduce repeated filing work for regular importers and can prevent release delays when bond coverage is in place.
Example
A distributor switched to a continuous bond once monthly imports made single-entry bonds more expensive and harder to manage.
Common mistake
Setting bond amount once and forgetting to review it after import value, duty rate, frequency, or product risk changes.
