The National Motor Freight Classification™ (NMFC®) is developed and maintained by the Commodity Classification Standards Board (CCSB). The CCSB investigates, initiates, considers and acts on matters affecting the provisions of the NMFC®, including: proposals for amending the classification of commodities; commodity descriptions; classes; rules; packaging definitions, specifications and requirements; bill of lading formats, terms and conditions; and other provisions contained in the NMFC®.
The CCSB is an autonomous board consisting of not less than three or more than seven full-time employees of the National Motor Freight Traffic Association (NMFTA) one of whom serves as Chairman. At present, there are five CCSB members. In addition, the CCSB’s staff includes a Legal Counsel and Packaging Consultant.[1]
NMFTA hosts three meetings a year at which the CCSB considers proposals to amend the NMFC® and the Association considers various topics and issues of interest to its members.[2]
