Tariff classification of goods: Where AI can help you?

Tariff classification is often described as an art, despite all efforts to standardise it. Goods are constantly changing and becoming more complex due to technological developments, and the legal basis adapts accordingly (which does not mean less complexity).
During the webinar, we will:
- Provide an overview of the latest legal developments in relation to the tariff classification of goods;
- Share insights into the latest practical challenges, such as the inappropriate description of goods, especially in e-commerce;
- Discuss how automation and AI can help you enhance compliance.
