What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you prevent customs and trade compliance failures by providing structured guidance for tariff classification, documentation, restricted party screening, and duty optimization across jurisdictions.
Core Features & Use Cases
- HS/HTS Tariff Classification Guidance: Apply General Rules of Interpretation (GRI) logic and document decision rationale to support classification defensibility.
- Customs Documentation & Valuation Support: Align commercial invoice, packing list, origin documentation, ISF/entry data, and valuation method selection with common regulatory requirements.
- Restricted Party Screening & Penalty Mitigation Playbooks: Screen parties, manage false positives, and apply prior disclosure concepts for penalty exposure reduction.
- FTA Qualification & Duty Optimization Workflows: Analyze rules of origin, calculate relevant metrics (e.g., RVC), and select duty programs (FTZ, drawback, temporary import bonds).
- Cross-Jurisdiction Operational Context: Covers practical considerations for US (CBP/ACE/ACE-focused concepts), EU/UK (UCC/BTI/AEO), and APAC specialties (e.g., CCC, e-commerce modes).
