This event has ended.

Has your country’s Customs Authority sent you a request for information requiring a quick response?  Have you just received notice of a formal visit or audit by your Customs Authority?  Do you anticipate the future acquisition or sale of your Company, which will require a deep-dive due diligence review of your imports profile and processes?  There are many instances in which importers may find themselves wondering whether their teams and systems are prepared to withstand scrutiny from a customs compliance standpoint.  This 1-hour program will explore how importers can assess their Company’s readiness, solve problems, and shore-up processes to demonstrate the Company’s goal and efforts toward achieving customs compliance.
