Frequently Asked Questions

Are the savings and recoveries in these case studies typical?

While every importer's data set and supply chain are unique, these case studies represent the material impact of our deep-dive auditing. Substantial recoveries are common because standard customs entry processes rarely look at structural tariff engineering or historical overpayments the way our independent audits do.

Can you perform a similar review for our company without disrupting our operations?

Absolutely. As highlighted in our cases, our review process is designed to operate completely in the background. We pull the necessary data independently, meaning your logistics and finance teams can focus on day-to-day operations while we uncover potential savings.

How do you ensure data security during these historical audits?

Data integrity and client confidentiality are foundational to our 44-year reputation. All customs records, financial data, and proprietary product descriptions shared with us are processed through highly secure, encrypted systems and are used strictly for the scope of your trade audit.

If a case study matches our exact situation, how fast can we see results?

Once we receive data access, our team typically identifies initial recovery opportunities or compliance gaps within a few weeks. The timeline for actual refunds depends on CBSA processing intervals, but we initiate the groundwork immediately to accelerate your returns.
