Description:
CBP’s mission is to safeguard America's borders while enhancing the Nation's global economic competitiveness. Importers’ responsibility to use Reasonable Care in their

day to day activities includes understanding the Most Common Importer Errors, preparing for a Focused Assessment, and understanding how the Priority Trade Issues impact daily affairs. Other topics to be discussed include: Classification; Valuation; Recordkeeping; Post entry activity; and Origin Determination.
 
In today's heightened regulatory environment, errors in ECCN determination, export valuation, or export reporting can result in penalties and shipment delays. We will review Commodity Jurisdiction, Classification and Licensing, Trade Embargoes, Denied Party Screening, Fines and Penalties, creating an effective Export Compliance Program, and Documentation and Recordkeeping. There will also be a hands on Workshop to practice ECCN and licensing determinations.

“Compliance is easy to push to the side. It is not always in the forefront of your operation. It’s not flashy or exciting. It may be considered an expense that doesn’t generate any revenue, it is so easy to say 'I will get back to Customs tomorrow.' However, the ramifications of being non-compliant are outstanding.”

- Nara Mitchell, Practice Manager, Tradewin
