What is WDT (Warehouse Withdrawal for Transportation)?

Warehouse Withdrawal for Transportation is a term used in the United States to describe a customs procedure that allows imported goods to be transported from a bonded warehouse to another location within the country without the payment of duties and taxes. This procedure is typically used when imported goods are not intended for immediate consumption or use, but rather for further processing, manufacturing, or distribution. By using a bonded warehouse and Warehouse Withdrawal for Transportation, importers can defer the payment of duties and taxes until the goods are actually used or consumed, which can help to reduce costs and improve cash flow. The Warehouse Withdrawal for Transportation procedure is subject to various rules and regulations, and must be properly documented and reported to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
