Subsequent Rulings Program
Who is This Program for?
- Do you use a current custom ruling to declare duties & taxes owed on similar types of goods, or new products imported by your company?
- Have you been negatively impacted by a Customs Administration's Trade Verification Review?
- Do you have existing rulings that will, or have become invalid, due to product design changes or legislative changes, such as a change to the Customs Tariff?
If any of the above scenarios apply to you, then our Subsequent Rulings Program can help you reduce your landed costs and protect your brand.
Program Benefits
Cost Certainty
Your duty rates will be confirmed in writing by the Customs Administration of the country where your goods are imported.
Predictability & Compliance
Your products will be protected by a customs ruling, binding the Customs Administration on how your products will be correctly reported.
Visibility to Government Changes in Policy
Policy changes not yet officially announced, are legislatively required to be communicated to you for the customs rulings obtained under this program. Allowing you to make proactive, instead of reactive decisions related to your global sourcing, supplier purchase orders, and landed cost/profit margin calculations.
Minimal Impact to You
For your new & similar types of products, or products with recent design changes, simply provide us with a listing of the product numbers and any relevant product information, and our team will take care of the rest.
Where changes to government legislation could impact your products, we will analyze & determine the impact of these changes to your existing customs rulings, and review with you next steps.
Our interactive and customizable reporting provides you with full visibility, and transparency to monitor our progress in real time. Allowing you the ability to provide us feedback, or to ask us any questions when it is convenient for you. You can stay focused on your day-to-day activities while monitoring the progress of our work, on your schedule.
The Dominion Approach
Simply select your customs ruling filing frequency, and we will take care of the rest. Select from annual, quarterly, or monthly ruling filings, or per specific request. You can change your frequency at any time.
We will be transparent & communicate with you on a regular basis, so you know exactly the status of each of your products managed under this program.
