Customs Compliance

Since the implementation of the Customs Modernization and Informed Compliance Act, the obligation for correct classification, appraisement and admissibility determination shifted to the importer, with US Customs providing oversight and monitoring.

Customs has made it clear importers are required to know what is expected of them and to comply with those requirements.
