 International
trade is complicated. In addition to locating a buyer
or a seller for your goods, you have to arrange payment,
move the goods from one country to another, and make
sure you make money in the process.
On top of all that, you must make sure you are complying
with both countries' import-export regulations. Forget
to do that, and you could end up having your shipment
seized and/or wind up paying tens of thousands or even
hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines.
Sound difficult? It doesn't have to be. International
Business Training offers a variety of easy and affordable
compliance solutions for your company.
Online Export Compliance Screening
If your company is like most export companies, the
biggest challenge to implementing proper export controls
is finding an easy way to integrate them into your
export process. If your export staff can’t easily
check a customer against the Restricted Party lists,
for example, it may not get done. That’s especially
true if the export compliance process substantially
delays the shipping process.
That’s why International Business Training has
created a menu of online export compliance tools that
make the compliance process as easy as visiting a website.
And because your export compliance needs may differ
from what other companies need, we’ve made our
menu of tools à la carte, so you can subscribe
to only those services you actually need.
Export
Controls - Before you export your goods
to another country, you need to determine whether or
not you must first get an export license based on your
product classification and the destination country.
This online screening tool will tell you that
plus provide assistance to help you apply for an export
license or other export control document if required.
Product
Classification - Our online Product
Classification Tool makes it easier for you and
your company to identify your products’ proper
Schedule B or Harmonized Schedule (HS) numbers
that are required on your export documents. In
addition, this tool searches the Export Administration
Regulations (EAR) to see if the government identifies
your product as a controlled item and helps you
determine the proper Export Control Classification
Number (ECCN) required for export license determination.
Trade
Party Screening - The U.S. Export
Administration Regulations (EAR) prohibit trade
with specific individuals, companies, institutions
and organizations. Instead of publishing all these
names in a single list, each government department
and agency with jurisdiction over exports publishes
their own list, which means there are more than
10 lists to check! By using our online screening
tool, you can check all the U.S. lists—as
well as the United Nations list, European Union
list, Japanese list and Canadian list—at
one time and in just seconds.
Online Import Compliance Screening
If your company is involved in importing in addition
to exporting, International Business Training also
provides online compliance tools that will help you
comply with current U.S. import regulations.
Import
Controls - The U.S. government’s
import regulations impose import quotas, licenses
and certificates on certain goods. Our Import Controls
Tool identifies any import controls that may exist
for your products and/or the countries from which
they are originating and provides information concerning
the support documentation needed to receive an
import license or other control documents.
Landed
Cost Calculator - Before you can accurately
determine the best country to source a product,
you need to know the final cost of delivering that
product to your warehouse or other destination
including all import duties, taxes and other government
charges. In addition to providing that detail,
our Landed Cost Calculator will also warn you if
anti-dumping duties or countervailing duties may
apply for a specific product. Our Calculator
even allows you to simultaneously compare products
imported from up to four different countries so
you can quickly compare costs. |
