The FDA and U.S. Customs and Border Protection require more information on imported products than before. FDA's PREDICT screening software and Customs' ACE system both need data from the foreign source, and FDA product codes and Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) codes link the legal requirements.
This 60-minute webinar on FDA import requirements explains what each system needs before entry. If the coding is wrong, you face costly delays, possible entry refusal, extra FDA scrutiny and fines for incorrect ACE data.
You'll also see why the commercial or pro forma invoice must match what is entered in PREDICT and ACE, and how a voluntary Affirmation of Compliance (AOC) can ease the requirements.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
The entry filing requirements took effect in 2016 and still cause problems for importers. Getting the information right avoids delays and detentions, and lets you track your entry's status and your broker's communications with Customs.
This session suits business planning and acquisition executives, regulatory managers, in-house counsel, investors, import/export business owners, international trade, logistics and sales managers, and import brokers.
