Tariff classification and advisory
We tell you what your goods will pay before you buy them: tariff line, duties, applicable treaties and requirements, with numbers rather than guesses.
The decision to import is taken long before a shipment exists, and almost always with an incomplete figure: the supplier’s price. What determines whether the business is profitable is the landed cost, and that is where duties, taxes, permits and charges that do not appear on the invoice come in.
Our advisory puts those numbers on the table before you commit. We classify the goods, calculate the duties, check whether a treaty lowers the tariff and tell you which permits you will need, so you buy on the real margin rather than the apparent one.

Common questions
Is the tariff classification final?
Our opinion is based on the description and the general interpretative rules of the SAC. For complex or high-volume goods we can request a binding ruling from the Customs Administration.
