Raising the Bar of Trade Compliance Management for Importers: Navigating CBP’s Stringent New CBP Enforcement Strategies

In concert with the Departments of Commerce, Homeland Security, Commerce and Treasury, the Trump Administration is creating a bold initiative to hold both domestic and foreign companies to a higher standard on their imports into the United States.

CBP is raising the bar and tightening up on several key areas to ensure an even playing field in global trade. This will be accomplished by ensuring that fraudulent importers will be discovered and held accountable, and that monies due from duties and tariffs are correctly administered and paid into the Treasury. This webinar provides eye-opening insight into the new culture at CBP and outlines the roadmap for staying compliant.
