U.S. Customs regulations must be carefully followed, whether it is based upon a “substantial transformation” or tariff shift. Diaz Trade Law regularly analyzes and advises clients on how to properly identify and label the correct country of origin in compliance with both U.S. Customs and the “Made in USA” rules of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
