Assigning the correct harmonized tariff schedule (HTS) classification is essential for paying import duties and taxes properly, but many importers don’t have the internal expertise or resources to manage this time-consuming task. Whether you need a one-time review, an annual audit or ongoing support as part of the customs process, American Global Logistics offers flexible options to ensure your HTS classifications are correct.

Import and export compliance goes far beyond filing a customs entry or export declaration. The compliance process stretches from initial sourcing and negotiation to five years post-sale, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection is increasing enforcement of these complex regulations. American Global Logistics works with customers to create effective compliance programs that minimize the risk of audits, fines and penalties.
