Exporting to the United States – A U.S. Customs Documentation seminar

Wednesday, March 17th Brockville Country Club, 1548 King St. West, Brockville (8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.).  Cost to attend is $30.

The Ontario Ministry of Economic Development and Trade and the City of Brockville Economic Development and Tourism Department are pleased to invite you to attend a morning event on Exporting to the United States – a U.S. Customs Documentation seminar being offered on Wednesday, March 17th in Brockville at the Brockville Country Club.  

Ensuring that your shipment is properly documented is one of the most critical elements in getting your goods across the border. Yet, incomplete or poorly filled out documentation continues to be the number one reason cited by U.S. Customs for delays or refused entry of goods. The U.S. Customs Documentation seminar is designed to help you understand the customs documentation required to clear your goods.  The seminar is ideally suited for anyone involved in export development to the U.S., whether working in a management, inside or outside sales, marketing or business development position. The seminar will provide you with practical, hands-on information on:

·      What is happening at the border, the role of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Customs Brokers and your responsibilities as the Importer of Record;

·      Tariff classifications, Country of Origin, NAFTA and Record Keeping;

·      U.S. Documentation Requirements plus an overview of some of the costs

·      An overview of ACE, C-TPAT, PIP and other government acronyms

·      An overview of some of costs such as duty rates, MPFs and Surety Bonds

The cost to attend is $30.* Pre-registration is required by March 15th.  Additional information can be found in the attached event flyer.
