TradeMoves’ Approach: Global Intelligence & Insights + Sourcing & Supply Chain Strategies
TradeMoves conducted a comprehensive tariff and tax intelligence mapping exercise to better inform our client of the various export opportunities offered through existing US free trade agreements. Their first shipment to Australia was planned for 2019 and the TradeMoves team was asked to help operationalize the US-Australia Free Trade Agreement. We reviewed the products, provided classification for the goods, reviewed origin of the inputs, and helped the export team ensure the goods could qualify for preferential duty-free access into Australia.
The Outcome:
Our work resulted in their first-ever export shipment into Australia of these US-made healthy snacks which cleared Australian Customs and entered duty-free under the US-Australia Free Trade Agreement in October 2019.
