Solicitation of Suppliers for Free Trade-Related Documents
Are you obtaining all required documentation from your suppliers? Would you be able to provide backup documentation in the event of a Customs audit? Is your supplier documentation being audited in accordance with the applicable Rule of Origin?
Acquiring valid Customs compliance documentation from your suppliers is necessary for the qualification of your goods. This process can be tedious and time consuming if your company does not have the appropriate resources in place. Copper Hill provides origin verification services, including solicitation of your suppliers for all Free Trade Agreements and other compliance documentation.
Our services include document solicitation for all suppliers and systematic follow up to ensure documents are returned in a timely manner. Our team reviews and performs quality checks on all returned documents to ensure they are completed as required, eliminating the risk of paying back duties with interest or financial penalties in case of a Customs audit. All returned data is processed electronically and used for origin determination and duty savings. Additionally, all documents are imaged and retained in accordance with Customs recordkeeping requirements.
