Download or read book Guide to United States Customs and Trade Laws written by Leslie Alan Glick and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2008-02-19 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the intensified focus on antiterrorism in US trade policy — and the transfer of the Customs Service from the US Treasury Department to the Department of Homeland Security as the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection — traditional ways of thinking about customs and trade law are now out of date. In light of the war on terrorism and the emphasis on border security, businesses engaged in the cross-border exchange of goods face a multitude of new laws and initiatives — in addition to the traditional array of responsibilities required by the US Bureau of Customs and Border Protection and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. While these regulations are intended to strengthen border security, without careful planning they may have the unfortunate result of hindering the efficient movement of goods. In addition to updated customs forms and helpful appendices, this third edition covers the burgeoning area of free trade agreements between the US and countries around the globe. These agreements are a critical aspect of US bilateral trade relations, affecting not only duty rates but also rules of origin and policies on investment, trade in services and access to Government procurement markets. In sum, this book is an invaluable tool for a host of international trade professionals including in-house counsel dealing with import-export issues, corporate logistic managers, regulatory and compliance managers, and import-export specialists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Audits and Compliance" Book provides you with an overview of the U.S. Customs Modernization Act including a reasonable care checklist, an explanation of the audit procedures called "Focused Assessment," how to design policy and procedures, record-keeping requirements, and much more. When the United States enacted the Customs Modernization Act in 1993, it transferred responsibility for classifying and entering correct value of goods from U.S. Customs to the importer of record. Now companies must be sure to properly classify all their imported goods, accurately report their value, and determine and pay the appropriate duties and fees. Failure to comply with the regulations can result in severe penalties to the importer. In addition, Customs requires importers to create a set of standard operating procedures for the importation of their goods into the United States. To ensure these procedures are being followed and producing accurate results, Customs periodically audits these procedures to ensure compliance with import regulations.

Download or read book Customs Administration Reform and Modernization in Francophone Sub Saharan Africa 1995 2010 written by Mr.Gilles Montagnat-Rentier and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2012-10-31 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper outlines reforms that have been achieved in the modernization of the customs administrations of francophone sub-Saharan (African) countries since the mid-1990s. It also highlights the remaining issues in this process. Progress has been made in the automation of operations and procedures, with constant and significant efforts to strengthen revenue collection and improve trade facilitation in a number of countries. However, the pace and scope of modernization remains insufficient, particularly in developing customs control and enforcement capacities, and enhancing operational resources and management. The findings suggest that the authorities’ strong commitment to reform, organizational and management changes, adequate technical assistance and project management, and effective implementation of modern customs standards, are critical to accelerate the modernization of customs in francophone sub-Saharan Africa.
