CBP Can Now Void Importer Of Record Numbers For Inaccurate Form 5106 Data

On September 18, 2026, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) began enhanced enforcement of importer of record (IOR) identity data on CBP Form 5106. CBP announced the enforcement program in a general notice published in the Federal Register. Accuracy of Importer of Record Data Submitted to CBP, 91 Fed. Reg. 53,627, 53,627 (Aug. 19, 2026). This notice states CBP’s enforcement position; it is not a new regulation and does not add new Form 5106 data elements. The enforcement includes immediate voiding of IOR numbers when CBP determines the data is inaccurate or incomplete. A voided number is “invalid for any purpose,” including entering merchandise.
