ATA Carnets - How to Grow, Save Money & Simplify Customs Clearance on Temporary Exports and Imports

You wouldn’t travel internationally without a passport. Nor should you travel with products and samples without a ‘passport’ for goods. Similarly, do you sometimes need to have merchandise imported into a country on a temporary basis but want to avoid the hassle of actually importing and then exporting? Attend this webinar to learn how to solve these challenges. ATA Carnets are “Merchandise Passports.” They are internationally accepted customs documents that simplify customs procedures for the temporary importation of various types of goods. ATA Carnets ease the temporary importation of commercial samples, professional equipment, and goods for exhibitions and fairs. They facilitate international business by reducing time for customs clearance, eliminating payment of import-duty and -tax. Carnets are valid for up to 12 months and can be used an unlimited number of times into 87+ countries and territories. Attend this no-cost webinar to learn how ATA Carnets can help your business expand into new, international markets and save money by avoiding payment of import-duty and -tax on your temporary exports and imports.
