International Trade & Customs Compliance

Over the years of helping clients expand across borders, we’ve realized that international trade compliance isn’t just about tariffs and regulations—it’s also about bridging legal systems, managing cross-cultural expectations, and anticipating risks before they surface.

With bar licenses in New York State, Washington State and China, and a background in cross-border practice at international law firms, we offer not only legal precision but also deep familiarity with how U.S. and Chinese businesses think, negotiate, and grow.

Whether you're a first-time exporter entering the U.S. market or a seasoned importer aiming to streamline your compliance systems, we can help you navigate customs challenges with clarity, adaptability, and strategic perspective.

We provide the following services, among others:

  • Product classification & tariff planning (HTS codes)
  • Handling CBP audits, penalties, and detentions
  • Valuation and country-of-origin analysis
  • Duty relief programs (FTZs, bonded warehouses, drawback)
  • Coordination with customs brokers & entry documentation review
  • Structuring cross-border transactions & reviewing purchase agreements

We aim to turn the complexity of customs law into a clear, actionable path—so you can focus on growing your business with confidence and legal clarity.
