Also if duty has been paid on items due to a number of reasons including negligence or situations where a Free Trade Certificate was not made available at the time of importation, then a Free Trade Certificate can be requested within 12 months of the date of exportation from the overseas country. &nbsp;&nbsp;By doing so, you will then avail your business to a potential refund should your product meet the correct criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, Jason Kline, Managing Director at Clarke Global Logistics was able to provide a fantastic result during a Customs Audit for an importer with Customs refunds totalling approximately $400,000.&nbsp; This was for imports over a four year period, gained by identifying both existing Tariff Concessions and goods imported from free trade countries.&nbsp; &nbsp;These situations are common when there are multiple customs brokers and freight forwarders used by importers causing different interpretations of tariff classifications between service providers and FTA\u2019s not being followed up after importation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clarke Global understands the complexities involved with providing Customs Clearance in a fast paced global climate.&nbsp; They have both experienced &amp; expert staff with extensive knowledge of both Customs Tariff and Customs related issues.&nbsp; Why not provide your business with a health check to benefit from this extensive knowledge?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please contact Clarke Global today on 9854 3000 or send an email to <a href=\"mailto:enquiry@clarkeglobal.com.au\">enquiry@clarkeglobal.com.au<\/a> if you are interested in an <strong>initial free consultation<\/strong> to provide a preliminary check of your prior importations.&nbsp; What do you have to lose?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><small>Photo by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/26373139@N08\/5537894072\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">kenteegardin<\/a> <a title=\"Attribution-ShareAlike License\" href=\"http:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.clarkeglobal.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/cc.png\" alt=\"\"><\/a><\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you know that with the right expertise, there are services available that can not only enable you minimise customs duties where possible, but reclaim back duties that have been overpaid.
