What Is Trade Compliance Consulting?
Trade compliance consulting involves reviewing and advising businesses on customs regulations, import/export requirements, and international trade laws. It ensures that your company follows all applicable government rules while optimizing operational efficiency.
In the United States, compliance is enforced by agencies such as U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), while in Canada, oversight is handled by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
