About The Webinar

With additional tariffs for most textile, apparel, footwear and bags from China, now is the time to evaluate options. One way to avoid this additional duty assessment is outward processing, in which the most important processing operations are shifted to a country other than China, while still permitting China origin materials, subassembly, finishing and exporting if desired. 

Companies should evaluate this option with care, as the required processing is unique for different types of goods.
