2 Program Content Certified Company and New Certified Company Program (NEEC) Background General Requirements Objective NEEC Benefits Filing and Certification Procedure Current Position on C-TPAT Companies 2 New Certified Company Program
3 Background As a result of 9/11 attacks, USA implements C-TPAT program In June 2005, the members of the WCO adopted SAFE Framework of standards to secure and facilitate global trade by unanimous acclamation. (Mexico Included) SAFE Framework bases four core elements on twin pillars of Customs-to- Customs network arrangements and Customs-to-Business partnerships. In 2009 Mexican Government begins to implement a program to ensure security standards in the international trade supply chain with the purpose of detecting and reducing high-risk consignments. AEO is an Authorized Economic Operator defined as...a party involved in the international movement of goods in whatever function that has been approved by or on behalf of a national Customs administration as complying with WCO or equivalent supply chain security standards. AEOs include inter alia manufacturers, importers, exporters, brokers, carriers, consolidators, intermediaries, ports, airports, terminal operators, integrated operators, warehouses, distributors. 3 New Certified Company Program
4 Background Other countries have initiated Customs-to-Business partnerships with AEO s through corresponding programs: USA: C-TPAT (2002) Canada: PIP (2002) New Zealand: SES (2004) Jordan: Golden List (2005) Japan: AEO (2006) Argentina: SAOC (2006) Singapore: STP (2007) EU: AEO (2007) China: Classified Management of Enterprises (2008) Korea: AEO (2009) Norway: AEO (2009) Guatemala: AEO (2009) Costa Rica: AEO (2010) 4 New Certified Company Program
5 Background In 2002 Mexican Customs launched a program called Certified Company (CC) designed to provide trade benefits to reliable companies meeting specific import requirements and company characteristics. In December 2011 Mexican Customs published its New Certified Company Program (NEEC) as part of the agreement adopted through the WCO in establishing a Customs-to- Business partnership program. Therefore NEEC is a voluntary program designed to strengthen the international trade supply chain established between Mexican Customs and the private sector. Benefits are granted to companies meeting such minimum security standards. Mexico began through manufacturing companies and began integrating transportation companies, and other AEO s. 5 New Certified Company Program
6 Background Differentiate between Certified Company (CC) and NEEC. CC original qualifying requirements: A. import value amount, B. IMMEX companies importing certain value amount, C. IMMEX companies importing below the value amount, E. Transportation companies such as FedEx, UPS, others. CC companies originally had up to 48 benefits In 2012 NEEC is added to the qualifying requirements as a new section and Mexican Customs reassigned the 48 benefits: a) For CC under letter A and E 5 benefits, b) For CC under letter B, C 11 benefits and NEEC 48 benefits. 6 New Certified Company Program
7 General Requirements CC Filing Requirements Submit a written letter requesting incorporation into CC program signaling: Complete name and customs broker license number of the authorized broker Transportation companies who the company will be working with, including name, address and tax payer s ID number (RFC) PROSE and IMMEX companies must indicate their registration number Main activity of the Company Attached to the letter companies must present: Certified Copy of the articles of incorporation and modifications related to the social object of the company Certified copy of the power of attorney of the legal representative signing the petition documents Proof of payment of the corresponding fees for the filing Positive outcome opinion regarding the fiscal years open for revision (5 years) Proof of financial statement presentation before corresponding authorities, regarding the last fiscal year obligated to file 7 New Certified Company Program

10 Objective Strengthening the security of the trade logistics chain through the implementation of minimum standards for safety, internationally recognized in coordination with the private sector providing benefits for companies that wish to participate. Companies wishing to belong to the NEEC must meet certain requirements, which can be grouped into three principles of compliance: Tax, Customs and Security The company must comply with the minimum standards: Security planning in the supply chain Physical security. Physical access control. Commercial partners. Process security. Customs management. Safety of trucks, containers, trailers and / or tows. Personnel safety (HR). Information and documents security. Security training and awareness Incident management and investigation. 10 New Certified Company Program
11 Security Standards Standard Security planning in the supply chain Physical Security Physical access control Description The company must develop policies and documented procedures to conduct an analysis to identify risks and weaknesses in their supply chain in order to establish strategies to help mitigate them. The company must have mechanisms in place to detect, prevent or discover the entrance of unauthorized persons to the facility. All sensitive areas of the company require physical barriers, control elements and deterrence against unauthorized entry. The company must have mechanisms or procedures to control entry of employees and visitors, and protect company assets. Access controls must include the identification of employees, visitors and vendors at all points of entry. Commercial partners The company must have written and verifiable processes for the selection and recruitment of commercial partners (carriers, manufacturers, vendors, suppliers of parts and raw materials, and service providers) and demand them to comply with established security measures according to their risk analysis. Process security The company must establish control measures to ensure the integrity and safety of goods during transportation, handling, customs clearance and storage of cargo along the supply chain. 11 New Certified Company Program
12 Security Standards Standard Customs management Description The company must have documented procedures in which operating and internal policies are established as well as necessary controls for proper compliance with customs requirements.

It is necessary to document procedures to investigate and report incidents in the supply chain and the actions to be taken to prevent recurrence. 13 New Certified Company Program
14 Implementation (company) Follow-up Audit Project Approach Phase I *Phase II Assessment Analysis Building Filing During this stage you must undertake the process and documental support assessment required in order to obtain NEEC certification During this phase you must analyze the company s current documentation and determine a gap breach that will allow us to clearly identify the course of action needed to support the company in achieving its new standard of compliance. During this stage we consider there are different levels of work, through which you and an external consultant could participate in various levels of involvement to better suit your company s needs and resources. The objective of this phase is to document process, design and document procedures. This phase of the project consists on preparing all paperwork required to file the NEEC certification petition, submitting such request before corresponding authorities in Mexico city, coordinating any activities that follow, such as certification visit from customs officials and any other follow up action required until we obtain the final response. 14 New Scheme of Certified Companies
15 Building phase Phase I Assessment Analysis Building Filing The three different scopes of services during the Building phase, are related to the level of involvement required. I.GAP Analysis and recommendations External consultant provides all recommendations based on the analysis performed during stages 1 and 2, in order to the company to assign a project leader responsible for executing our recommendations, which will basically consist in documenting process and procedures. II. Supervision and Evaluation Under this format the company assigns a project leader who is responsible for documenting all process and procedures recommended by the external, accordingly with findings of stages 1 and 2. Follow up with the project leader in reviewing the carried out work and performing a quality assurance interview, in order to validate that the NEEC profile required standards have been met. III. Procedures Design and Documentation Under this format the external would be responsible for carrying out the complete project, which is parting from the analysis made during stages 1 and 2, we would follow up by generating the corresponding documents and flowcharts to support all process and procedures required to meet the NEEC standards. 15 New Scheme of Certified Companies
16 Deliverables Phase I Assessment Analysis Building Filing The deliverable for this stage must consist of a list of all currently documented procedures and process and a comparison list matched with those required by NEEC program. The deliverable for this stage should be a chart with the identified gap and we are going to provide recommendations to fill in the gap resulting from the fore mentioned comparison. Regardless of the format in which the company prefers to work under during this stage, the deliverable should result in documented procedures and process in the form of flow charts, that supports proper compliance with the minimum NEEC security standards as indicated in the profile. The deliverable intended for this stage is to obtain the original stamped filing documents and the official response issued by the authorities through an official written letter, stating a positive or negative response.. 16 New Scheme of Certified Companies
