Service Area
Georgia Foreign-Trade Zone works with companies throughout our federally approved FTZ Service Area surrounding the Atlanta Port of Entry. If your business is within this Service Area, site specific FTZ applications can be approved for warehousing/distribution operations by the FTZ Board in 30 days. The review and approval process for operations involving manufacturing or production usually takes 3 – 6 months.
If your business is located outside of the FTZ #26 Service Area, you may be able to access the program by applying for a subzone designation.
GFTZ can assist you in determining the best fit and aid in the process. Contact us to find out which solution is best for your business.

Third Party Warehousing & Global Logistics Facilities
Immediate access to benefits for the short or long-term needs of your business.
If you need the advantages of the FTZ program on an occasional or immediate basis, a warehouse with FTZ designation and operated by a third-party logistics provider might be the solution. Sometimes referred to as a “general-purpose” FTZ warehouse, this type of facility serves a variety of businesses without requiring them to hold their own FTZ designation.
Unlike bonded warehouses, which only allow duty payment to be deferred for up to five years and require a new Customs entry and fee each time merchandise is withdrawn, FTZ warehouses offer flexibility. Merchandise admitted to a general purpose FTZ warehouse can be:
Production activities require further approval from the FTZ Board.
Warehouse operators typically handle all FTZ-related forms and reporting. The importer, or warehouse customer, therefore realizes immediate FTZ benefits without the obligations associated with applying for FTZ designation and operating a FTZ facility.
