Helpful Tips March 2018

March 6, 2018

Are You at Risk?  Have you ever thought or even said any of these statements?

“Just use this harmonized tariff code, it’s the one we have always used.”

“Send it to another port and use the same HTS and maybe that port won’t catch it…”

”We’ve never had to enter this item as ADD/CVD before so it doesn’t apply.”

“Compliance manual?  Why do we need that?”

“Ultimate Consignee type?  Other/unknown seems like a good choice.”

“Routed export transaction, who cares.”

“Oh just mark it as EAR99 and send it no license required, it can’t be harmful.”

If you have thought or said any of these statements, you may be putting yourself at a compliance risk!  JAS Compliance may be able to help you!!!  We offer a variety of value-add services.

RECIP PAUSE TO END

Dear Valued Client,

Almost 90 days after the President authorized the 90 days PAUSE on higher country rate reciprocal tariffs, some countries have made progress and some have made deals.

As July 8 approaches, there is talk from the President indicating that some of the reciprocal tariffs will go back into effect for countries that have not worked on a deal.

Additional updates will follow once they are available.

CANADA TALKS END

The President has announced on Truth Social that all discussions on trade with Canada have been terminated effective immediately.  The President stated that the termination is because of years of tariffs on dairy products at 400%, and a recently announced Digital Services Tax on American tech companies.

The President also stated that the tariff rate for Canada will be announced in the next seven days.
