Customs Classification

Choosing the correct commodity code for your product can be difficult and confusing. Getting it wrong can be costly, causing delays and loss of income. The Customs Classification course will break down classification complexities and help your organisation choose the right codes and save costs, and time and expand your business. Join our interactive training which covers the WCO’s Harmonised System, the EU’s Combined Nomenclature/TARIC and the UK Global Tariff, together with their annual revisions. You will discover how to “construct” the code, understand why you and your supplier/customer in a different country may have divergent HS codes and what to do about it.
