Reducing import taxes is a critical priority for global traders

One of the most effective strategies is to accurately classify your products using the Harmonized System code

This international standard ensures that your goods are categorized correctly, which directly affects the duty rate applied

Errors in classification may result in fines or inflated costs—hiring a licensed broker or conducting thorough due diligence often yields substantial savings

Another approach is to take full advantage of free trade agreements

Check whether your products qualify under FTAs like USMCA, CPTPP, or доставка грузов из Китая (https://dev.neos.epss.ucla.edu) EU trade accords

Make sure your products meet the rules of origin requirements, which often involve proving where the goods were manufactured or substantially transformed

Maintain comprehensive audit trails including bills of lading, production certificates, and raw material receipts

Store goods in duty-deferred zones to delay or eliminate customs payments

These are designated areas where imported goods can be stored, processed, or repackaged without paying duties until they leave the zone for domestic consumption

If your products are shipped out again, you may never pay duties at all

Review your sourcing strategy to identify cost-saving opportunities

Shifting production or procurement to nations with preferential tariff schedules can create major savings

However, always weigh the savings against shipping times, quality control, and potential risks such as political instability or currency fluctuations

Structure your pricing to minimize taxable amounts without violating customs laws

Break out freight, handling, and insurance fees onto separate line items to exclude them from customs valuation

Send samples under duty-free allowances by confirming they’re non-saleable, low-value, and clearly marked as promotional

Duty rules shift frequently—ignoring updates can lead to overpayment or penalties

Customs policies are updated monthly in many jurisdictions

Register with CBP, HMRC, or your local customs body—and follow trade-focused chambers of commerce

Invest in ongoing education for your supply chain staff to ensure compliance

A holistic approach to customs compliance—rooted in accuracy, foresight, and proactive planning—is the most effective path to long-term cost reduction
