\n U.S. Customs Compliance Seminar
\n\n Export/Import 101 - Movement of Goods Across the Border
\n
\n
\n Pacific Customs Brokers is offering a seminar on \;U.S. Customs Compliance to \;commercial/professional importers\, non-resident \;importers\, controllers\, carriers\, shippers and \;receivers. The seminar will focus on compliance and \;regulations of goods imported/exported into the \;USA. This is a great opportunity for businesses with \;newly hired logistics staff\, as it is a cost effective \;way for employees to receive training and/or refresh \;their awareness in the transportation industry. This \;session is open to business owners\, operation \;managers\, purchasers and warehouse managers. We \;will cover such topics as: customs regulations\, \;required documentation\, North American Free Trade \;Agreement eligibility and the logistics of seamless \;cross border shipping. The knowledge gained at this \;seminar\, could directly effect your shipments \;crossing the border. Shipment delays and possible \;penalties issued by U.S. Customs and Border \;Protection could be the result of not being informed. If \;you are importing goods on both sides of the border\, \;we offer a full day seminar on U.S. and Canadian \;Customs Compliance.
