CUSTOMS
BROKERAGEWith the current emphasis on free trade agreements and global sourcing, customs issues have assumed an increasingly important role in the supply chain.
International trade issues can be challenging. Duty rates, customs clearance, and entry processes differ from country to country. Tariff classifications, value declaration, and duty management can create confusion and increase costs. NAFTA compliance, tariff classifications, duty/tax recovery are only a few of the issues that you need to be concerned about. The complexity of the job is evident when one considers that for every shipment entering the United States there is an official greeting: 500 pages of Customs regulations and thousands of tariff items.
