Learn MoreACI’s Passport to Proficiency on U.S. Customs Compliance comes at a pivotal, unprecedented time!
Given the SCOTUS strike down of IEEPA tariffs and the uncertainty surrounding the Trump Administrations’ immediate launch of tariff enforcement alternatives, importers continue to find themselves in unpredictable, uncharted trade/tariff territory. How do you preserve your right to a possible tariff refund? What does each new tariff scenario mean for importers? How does the end of IEEPA tariffs impact existing and evolving trade agreements?
ACI’s 3rd Passport to Proficiency on U.S. Customs Compliance-Winter Edition expands upon our Winter Edition of this event held this past January by once again bringing together customs compliance, brokers, in-house counsel and outside counsel to share best-practices around how to identify tariff mitigation approaches that work best for your business, understand emerging automation tools that can streamline customs compliance protocols, how to approach supply chain diversification/mapping/tracing, country of origin analyses, classification/valuation, and CBP audit response/audit automation, all at your fingertips.
