Transfer Pricing, Customs Valuation & Cross-Border Compliance

Description

EXACT COURSE DETAILS TBD:
Transfer pricing and customs valuation continue to receive increased scrutiny as companies navigate changing global trade policies, tariff exposure, and intercompany pricing structures. Decisions made between related parties can directly impact duty liability, customs compliance, profitability, and overall supply chain strategy.

This practical 4-hour session is designed to help importers, finance teams, compliance professionals, and operational leaders better understand how transfer pricing and customs valuation intersect in real-world trade environments.

Topics may include:

• Fundamentals of transfer pricing and intercompany transactions
• How customs valuation differs from tax valuation methodologies
• Related-party transactions and “circumstances of sale”
• Assists, royalties, tooling, and other common valuation considerations
• First sale, transaction value, and alternative valuation methods
• Managing tariff exposure through pricing and sourcing strategy
• Customs reconciliation and post-entry adjustments
• Documentation expectations and audit readiness
• Practical considerations for importers working across finance, tax, procurement, and compliance teams

The session will combine strategic discussion with practical examples to help attendees better understand where valuation risk exists, how trade and tax teams can align more effectively, and what processes companies should consider as global sourcing and tariff exposure continue to evolve.
