The FCC, working in conjunction with the U.S. Customs Service is responsible for the regulation of both authorized radio services and devices that can cause harmful interference. FCC Form 740 must be completed for each radio frequency device which is being imported into the United States, and is used to keep non-compliant devices from being distributed to the general public, thereby reducing the potential for harmful interference being caused to authorized communications. 

FCC Form 740 is submitted to the U.S. Customs Service and Border Patrol electronically or in paper format. The FCC Form 740 is not submitted to the Federal Communications Commission. When a violation is discovered, the FCC can issue a fine. If a product is suspected of illegal entry, the FCC works with U.S. Customs Service to resolve the issue.

Federal Communications Commission.

Deputy Secretary.
