U.S. Trade Compliance Seminar Series

Understanding the importer of record’s responsibilities can be the difference between keeping and losing your importing privileges. Attend part 1 to learn about U.S. Customs’ expectations, how to accurately complete required documentation and build a solid foundation for other trade topics like free trade agreements, H.S. classification and valuation. In-depth compliance verifications by customs agencies in recent years require that importers and exporters establish adequate internal controls and well-documented compliance procedures. Businesses that do not plan for a potential customs audit do so at their own peril. Stay for part 2 to understand prior disclosure, reasonable care and the various types of audits your company will be subject to if found in non-compliance.
