About The Webinar

Hundreds of new HTSUS amendments are proposed to go into effect Jan. 1, 2028 (or thereabouts) due to World Customs Organization updates to the international Harmonized System that occur every 5 years (or thereabouts). The USITC published the proposed amendments on April 17 and seeks comment on these proposed updates by May 18, 2026. The amendments impact goods such as ambulances, personal protective equipment, medical ventilators, diagnostic devices, vaccines, dietary supplements, plastic waste, plastic products, and goods controlled under international conventions. Some changes will result in reclassifying goods to entirely new provision,  while others may only have numerical changes.

 

It is important that importers review the proposed changes to ensure the duty impact is minimal, as required of this process. This 90-minute webinar will review how these changes will impact current classifications and rulings, help importers ensure they are exercising reasonable care, and identify any opportunities for new cost savings.
