A customs audit is a systematic examination of an organization’s import and export activities to assess its compliance with customs laws and regulations. The audit aims to verify the accuracy and completeness of customs declarations, tariff classifications, valuation, origin determination, and other relevant customs procedures. Customs authorities may select companies for audits based on risk assessments, random selection, or specific suspicions of non-compliance.

It is true that Customs is moving towards post-entry verification and audits. This means all importers and exporters must keep accurate trade data. We’ll review your records to ensure they comply with both tariff and non-tariff-based requirements, and we’ll make sure you’re prepared for a potential Customs audit.
