White House issues executive order strengthening CBP customs enforcement

President Donald Trump signed the executive order "Strengthening Customs Enforcement" on June 3, 2026, directing CBP to require importers, domestic and foreign, to provide more detailed information about their ownership, business operations and supply chain and to maintain good standing with CBP to keep importing. Customs brokers will be held to higher standards and must conduct greater due diligence on their importers, foreign importers face heightened import restrictions, and bond rules are being updated to set new minimums and leverage against risk. The order does not state effective dates or the specific information importers must submit.
