Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce Expands Global Opportunities for Members Through USCIB Partnership
The Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce is expanding the international resources available to its members through a new partnership with the United States Council for International Business (USCIB). Founded in 1945, USCIB powers the success of US business across the globe. USCIB advances the US business perspective to policymakers and regulatory authorities worldwide and works to facilitate commerce, support sustainable development, and build trust in multilateral systems.
Since 1969, USCIB has managed the national ATA Carnet system in partnership with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) through its role as the sole National Guaranteeing and Issuing Association (NGA) for ATA Carnets in the US. USCIB also serves as the US National Committee (NC) for the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), connecting American businesses and organizations with the global business community.
Through USCIB’s ATA Carnet Partnership Program, Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce members will gain access to educational resources, training opportunities, and guidance on ATA Carnets — the internationally recognized “passport for goods” that allows businesses to temporarily export eligible goods into 81 countries, tax and duty free, for up to one year. ATA Carnets are commonly used to transport commercial samples, professional equipment, and goods for trade shows, exhibitions, and demonstrations. The program will help Brooklyn Chamber members better understand how ATA Carnets can simplify international business travel and support their global expansion.
Together, these initiatives will strengthen the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce’s ability to support businesses pursuing international opportunities by connecting members with practical trade education, resources for navigating cross-border commerce, and a wider network of chamber relationships.
