Importing & Exporting

Guidance for successful shipments to/from Aero Instruments & Avionics, Inc.


Imports

Exporters and U.S. Importers have always had the responsibility for exercising “Reasonable Care” by ensuring the accuracy and completeness of their documentation submitted to U.S. Customs. However, the Mod Act has expanded these responsibilities from merely describing goods accurately to being responsible for correctly determining proper classification, duty rate, value, quota, preference programs, and all other agency requirements pertaining to imports. In other words, importers are now held responsible for the classification, valuation, and other agency compliance issues, which U.S. Customs previously determined.

To help you correctly import into the United States we are providing the following informational links:

Importing into the United States Reasonable Care
Tariff Classification Customs Administrative Enforcement Process
Customs Value 19 CFR
