Common Pitfalls of In-House Compliance

Trade compliance errors can lead to costly consequences. Joe Burks, a seasoned expert in the field, highlights the challenges businesses face when attempting to manage compliance internally:

  • Misclassification Risks: Tasks like assigning Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) codes often fall on untrained personnel, resulting in misclassifications that disrupt supply chains and incur penalties.
