CBP AI Flags Transshipped Goods Before Customs Clears Them, Closing Post-Audit Loophole
The White House Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy released a 25-page report, “The Great Transshipment Scam,” alleging Chinese goods are transshipped through 40+ countries to evade U.S. tariffs. It estimates annual illegal transshipment at $40B to $303B, with Exiger’s central $75B (Feb 2025-Feb 2026). CBP will use Exiger’s “Detective Border” AI to score shipments before customs release, potentially holding or denying entry.
