• Classification:  Merchandise imported is classified using the HTS (Harmonized Tariff System), which is based on the international Harmonized System, the global system of nomenclature that is used to describe the world’s most traded goods.

Crane Worldwide can review your products, their descriptions and classifications to make sure they are accurate and compliant as well as assist you with filing for binding rulings. This helps to avoid costly delays and potential penalties that could arise from product misclassification.
