Import at the Lowest Possible Value

Our Process:

  • Transaction Analysis: Review your current supply chain and purchasing structure

  • Opportunity Assessment: Identify potential savings through first sale rule application

  • Documentation Strategy: Develop systems to capture and maintain required first sale documentation

  • Implementation Planning: Restructure transactions to qualify for first sale treatment

  • Compliance Systems: Establish ongoing processes to maintain first sale eligibility

  • CBP Coordination: Manage any CBP inquiries or audits related to first sale claims

Restructure your import transactions to use the "first sale" between manufacturer and distributor as your dutiable value instead of your purchase price. This CBP-approved strategy can reduce your dutiable value by 20-40% with proper documentation and transaction structuring.

Who This Helps:

  • Companies buying through distributors or trading companies

  • Importers purchasing from intermediaries rather than direct manufacturers

  • Businesses with complex supply chains involving multiple parties

  • Companies seeking immediate duty reduction without changing suppliers

Requirements:

  • Goods must be sold for export to the United States in a bona fide sale

  • Must maintain proper documentation of the first sale transaction

  • First sale must be between unrelated parties

  • Goods cannot be further manufactured or processed after first sale

Pricing: Implementation fee + success bonus based on verified savings.
