Preparing for a Successful Customs Audit

September 19, 2023 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM (CDT)

Description

Event date/time: September 19, 2023 from 12:30pm – 2:00pm (this is a virtual event only). 

With the new fiscal year starting on October 1st, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“Customs”) will begin to notify U.S. importers of their selection for and required participation in various audit and assessment programs. These audits and assessments can cover a wide range of trade compliance topics, including country of origin, classification, FTA eligibility, etc.
