All businesses that import goods into the United States must comply with the laws and regulations governing imports. This course provides awareness-level training on compliance with some of the major provisions governing imports as found in the Tariff Act of 1930, the Customs Modernization Act, Title 19 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and the Harmonized Tariff System of the United States (HTSUS). It focuses on the all-important standard of 'reasonable care' and the use of the Reasonable Care checklist as formulated by US Customs and Border Protections (CBP), the agency responsible for administering customs and other laws affecting imports into the United States. The course will help users apply the checklist in practical ways to ensure or enhance compliance with import regulations in company-specific situations.
