A webinar series presented by Thompson Hine LLP

Please join us for a complimentary webinar series focusing on the basics of import regulation and customs compliance. In <a href="https://www.thompsonhine.com/insights/?query=smartrade%2520fundamentals">past years</a>, our SmarTrade Fundamentals series explored a range of international compliance areas, including import, export, and sanctions. 2025 has seen an enormous shift in the tariff landscape and a related need for companies to dive deeply into import compliance. So, this year’s SmarTrade Fundamentals 2025 focuses on tariffs, import compliance, and trade remedies.

contentpilot/introduction

Our sessions will lay the groundwork with overviews of the administration’s trade actions in the first 200 days and evolving tariff evasion enforcement in the U.S. and EU. Additional sessions will focus on key areas of risk and opportunity to reduce duty exposure in this shifting landscape while maintaining compliance. Through these focused sessions, participants will gain the tools to anticipate regulatory change, manage risk, and unlock value in their trade operations.

Accurate customs valuation is critical for avoiding penalties and ensuring compliance. This session reviews the methods of valuation, common pitfalls, and recent developments in CBP enforcement. Attendees will leave with strategies for documenting and defending valuation decisions.
