Duty Drawback: Your Secret Weapon in the Tariff War



With recent, dramatic escalations in U.S. and global tariffs, it has become increasingly important for companies to investigate creative alternatives to help them remain competitive and maintain international sales revenue. If your company imports goods and either re-exports them or exports equivalent products, whether or not they have been altered or incorporated into finished products, you should consider adding Duty Drawback to your trade arsenal to help offset high tariffs.

The drawback regulations under the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act (TFTEA) were updated as of February 24, 2019 to modernize the law. The amended regulations make it easier to file and process drawback claims by requiring electronic filing, providing for more flexible merchandise substitution allowances, simplifying record keeping requirements, standardizing timelines for filing claims and reducing the data required for claim submissions. 

Join us for this timely program to learn more! This webinar will provide an overview of Duty Drawback allowances and procedures, as well as an update on the Drawback regulations under TFTEA.
