"When is an Assist Not an Assist?"

Why Should You Attend:

In general, U.S. Customs valuation guidelines consider any assistance provided by the buyer to the seller that directly or indirectly affects the price paid or payable for imported goods as an assist. However, there are certain situations where an assist may not be considered as such.

What are "additions to value"?

  1. A cost that is frequently overlooked
  2. Something that can get you into trouble
  3. An expense that CBP auditors will be looking for
  4. A cost that may be difficult to find
  5. All of the above

The answer is (5).

Areas Covered in the Webinar:

  • Definition of additions to value
  • Real-world examples
  • Explore how to declare assists to CBP

Who Will Benefit:

  • Importers and exporters
  • Manufacturers
  • Freight forwarders/customhouse brokers
  • Attorneys
  • Any person involved in determining valuation of goods for Customs purposes.

These one - hour presentations (with 15-minute Q&A) will be continue throughout 2024.
