Free Trade Agreements
Trade Agreements are a substantial asset in minimizing spend, reaching customers, and making a competitive stance in the global marketplace. Our services focus on helping businesses identify eligible goods while maintaining compliance and mitigating risk through fully managed processes that keep your teams focused on their own responsibilities.
Free Trade Agreement Services Include
HTSUS & HTSCA Classification
We provide organizations with fully managed HTS Classification programs, whether broad scale, ad-hoc, or ongoing support for import, export, free trade agreements, and more. Our process includes industry expertise, professional opinions, CROSS Rulings, accurate recordkeeping, and system updates.
Supplier Solicitation
The Supplier Solicitation process helps companies in collecting details from suppliers prior to import of any goods. You may be able to achieve some duty tax benefits on importing goods if the government of importing country has a trade agreement with the government of the country of origin of goods.
Valuation
The Customs Valuation Agreement of the World Trade Organization (WTO) sets out a fair, uniform and neutral system for determining the value of imported goods on which customs officials levy duties. This system bars the use of arbitrary or fictitious customs values.
Product Qualification
Product Qualification is an integral part of the Free Trade Agreement process and should never be overlooked. Having proper qualification methods and recordkeeping can be the difference maker.
Document Issuance
Issuing Free Trade Agreement Certificates requires certain processes and procedures to be in place. We'll define & implement those processes, and issue the documents for you.

We help define and customize audit processes carried out internally by your staff or administered directly by our trained auditors.
