    Classification - Unless the goods are exempted from entry, importers must classify the goods they import under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States. Tariff classification determines the amount of duty that an importer owes, whether the goods are under quota, subject to antidumping duties, or qualify for duty-savings programs. Tariff classification helps our government prepare trade statistics.





    Special Programs: If it qualifies, an importer may (but is not required to) use a tariff classification or special trade program to avoid paying duties (and sometimes fees). The programs that allow this kind of special treatment include: The Generalized System of Preferences (GSP), Harmonized Tariff Classification 9801 and 9802, NAFTA, and other special programs.


    Valuation: An importer must provide and report to US Customs and Border Protection the value of imported merchandise. 

    Valuation: Manufacturing assists are items such as material components, molds, equipment, tools, and dies that the importer provides to the foreign manufacturer at a reduced cost or free of charge for use in producing the imported merchandise. Design and development costs undertaken in a country outside of the United States are also assists.

    Record Keeping: Importers are required to keep or retain records on file. CBP will penalize an importer for failing this duty.










    Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), such as patents, copyrights, and trademarks, are important to importers, manufacturers, and IPR owners. Importers must not infringe on the IPR of others. Manufacturers and owners can take steps to protect their IPR.


    C-TPAT, also known as the Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism, is a voluntary program administered by CBP that seeks to secure the supply chain of imported merchandise.
