NETGEAR Revalidates Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism Certification

Continuous certification for more than 18 years affirms NETGEAR’s position as a trusted brand.

NETGEAR® Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR), a global leader in intelligent networking solutions designed to power extraordinary experiences, is pleased to announce the successful revalidation of its Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT) certification by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Customs and Border Protection (DHS-CBP). This voluntary certification, which is granted to less than 5% of importers, is renewed every four years. Earning it again is a testament to NETGEAR’s ongoing commitment to safeguarding its supply chain and meeting the highest security standards.

The revalidation process involves an exhaustive inspection of the company’s entire supply chain network, requiring NETGEAR to demonstrate compliance with rigorous security protocols. NETGEAR’s recertification shows the company has successfully addressed a wide range of security concerns and implemented security measures that align with global best practices. This achievement underscores the company's dedication to collaborating with DHS-CBP to reduce vulnerabilities and improve security within its operations.

“Achieving CTPAT revalidation recognizes the strong security foundation NETGEAR has built across its supply chain,” said Ray Ernenwein, Senior Vice President of Operations at NETGEAR. “We are proud to work closely with DHS-CBP to ensure that our import flows involve limited risk and continue to meet the highest standards, particularly as border control policies remain dynamic. This revalidation not only ensures a smooth flow of goods but also affirms NETGEAR’s position as a trusted brand, committed to secure processes.”

The CTPAT program recognizes companies that have successfully implemented robust security practices. CTPAT members are considered to be of low risk and are therefore less likely to be examined/delayed at a U.S. port of entry, allowing for more efficient operations and timely delivery of products to customers.

With the CTPAT revalidation, NETGEAR continues to uphold its reputation as a low-risk, trusted importer, strengthening its global supply chain and maintaining a high level of service for its customers.
