Trusted Across Diverse Business Sectors
When should customs advice be obtained before shipment?
Customs positions are easier to manage when classification, value, origin and exemption conditions are reviewed before goods reach the border.
Importers With Material Duty Positions
Importers should consider advice where classification, valuation or exemption treatment materially affects landed cost.
- New product / tariff classification
- Related-party or special valuation issues
- Concessional notification or exemption conditions
Businesses With Complex Cross-Border Supply Chains
Advice is useful where origin, documentation, licences or multiple jurisdictions affect customs treatment.
- FTA / preferential origin questions
- Restricted / regulated goods
- Multi-party or related-party import structures
Have an import or export where duty, classification or documentation is uncertain?
Discuss Customs AdvisoryCustoms risk is often determined before the goods are shipped.
The description, classification, transaction value, origin and exemption claimed on import documents can determine duty cost and future scrutiny.
Customs advisory therefore benefits from early review of product literature, commercial agreements, invoices and supply-chain structure rather than waiting until goods are held or assessed.
Where a position will recur, documenting the classification or valuation logic can help procurement, logistics and finance teams apply the treatment consistently.

Customs Import Advisory Process Graphic
What information usually supports a customs review?
A customs position should be commercially workable and documentable.
Classification and exemption decisions affect landed cost, pricing and procurement planning, so they should be reviewed before the shipment becomes time-sensitive.
Where imports are recurring, consistency matters. Different classifications or valuation approaches across shipments can create later questions or retrospective exposure.
For preferential origin claims, the commercial benefit should be balanced with the ability to demonstrate that the required origin criteria and supporting documentation are actually met.
