Tariff Classification
Tariff Classification Workshop using Harmonized Tariff Schedule and Schedule B Classification for:
- Imports
- Exports
- FTA determination
- Clarification on Section 301 and Section 232
The classification & valuation of goods are major decisions! Learn critical information in this Tariff Classification Workshop. This is not only for duty purposes but also to determine whether goods are subject to quotas, restraints, embargoes, or other restrictions.
If you classify or value your products incorrectly, your shipment may not reach its destination, and/or you may be subjected to severe penalties. You will also learn how to determine whether goods are subject to quotas, restraints, embargoes or other restrictions. This tariff classification training course will give you the tools you need to properly classify your imported and exported goods.
NOTE: As a customs professional navigating the current tariff chaos is a key focus of our role today, training has become essential to effectively manage the rapid succession of Executive Orders and shifting regulatory landscapes. Recent Executive Orders have introduced sweeping changes such as new and increased tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China, the suspension of de minimis exemptions, and expanded Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminum. All of which are implemented with little warning and often ambiguous guidance. It is imperative to understand how to classify your goods
