Meeting/Event Information

Deconstructing manufactured products. Is this the future of import classification, Origin Analysis and revenue collection by Customs? 

Speaker Lawrence W. Hanson 

Over the last few years CBP has directed importers and brokers to essentially deconstruct manufactured items to identify component parts that are subject to additional duties/ taxes such as AD/CVD, 301 or 201. In a 2020 CSMS message on pipe spools CBP instructed Importers and Brokers to apply the classification of the essential character (pipe typically) to component materials subject to AD/CVD based on the HTS and country of origin of the actual component subject to AD/CVD and submit the deposit for any AD/CVD due on the component line. Similar guidance has recently been given for golf clubs, flashlights and several other items. Is this the wave of the future and how does an importer or broker manage this process?  How will the invoice requirements be changed to accommodate this data driven deep dive for revenue?  What should the Customhouse Broker know, what data should we collect and how can we protect the interests of our employers and clients? You won't want to miss this informative luncheon.
