What is a Special Examination for The Customs Broker License?

The regular Customs Broker Exam is held twice a year on the fourth Wednesday in April and October unless the regularly scheduled examination date conflicts with a national holiday, religious observance, or other foreseeable event in which case the CBP will publish an appropriate notice of a change in the examination date in the Federal Register.
However, in circumstances where a brokerage is at risk of losing its license by operation of law before the next scheduled examination, CBP may, at the request of the brokerage and on payment of the associated expenses, conduct a special examination for the Customs Broker License, for a prospective applicant for an individual license, who would serve as the required licensed member or officer for the brokerage.
  • Under § 111.11(b) to qualify for a broker’s license, a partnership must have at least one member of the partnership who is a broker.
  • Under § 111.11 © to qualify for a broker’s license, an association or corporation must have at least one officer who is a broker.
  • Under § 1641(b)(5) the failure of a customs broker that is licensed as a corporation, association, or partnership … to have, for any continuous period of 120 days, at least one officer of the corporation or association, or at least one member of the partnership, validly licensed [as a broker] … shall, …, result in the revocation by operation of law of its license.
  • Further, under § 111.45(a) if a broker that is a partnership, association, or corporation fails to have, during any continuous period of 120 days, at least one member of the partnership or at least one officer of the association or corporation who holds a valid individual broker’s license, that failure will result in the revocation by operation of law of the license and any permits issued to the partnership, association, or corporation.
  • Under § 111.13 © if a partnership, association, or corporation loses the required member or officer having an individual broker’s license and its license would be revoked by operation of law before the next scheduled examination, CBP may authorize a special examination for a prospective applicant for an individual license who would serve as the required licensed member or officer. CBP may also authorize a special examination for an individual for purposes of continuing the business of a sole proprietorship broker.

How do you really know when you’re ready to take the Customs Broker Exam?

Typically, candidates prepare for the Customs Broker Exam by taking classes, reading relevant material, and taking old practice tests. When they pass a few old practice tests, they feel that they might be ready to take the actual exam. There are several problems with this subjective approach to determining a level of preparedness. Test takers may: pass some practice tests now, but forget information over time and see their level of preparedness drop by the time they take the actual exam. pass some of the easier old exams but fail a more difficult one. not take the practice exams under timed conditions, leading to erroneous results. not take enough practice exams to get reliable feedback. feel complacent when they repeat the same exams and pass them, but possibly fail a new exam. For these reasons, test takers cannot be certain about how well prepared they really are by using a purely subjective method to assess their level of preparedness. This is further compli
