Join  Amanda Barlow, Roanoke’s Vice President of Client Experience on Tuesday, April 7th at the Courtyard Marriott in Downtown Long Beach for the Ins and Outs of  ATA Carnets. This seminar starts at 9am and registration and breakfast will commence at 8:30am.

About the Seminar

An ATA Carnet is an international customs document that provides duty-free customs clearance for temporary exports into over 100 countries. ATA Carnets simplify these temporary exports by eliminating the need to post a temporary import bond or pay the import duties and taxes to enter a foreign country. Virtually all goods, whether hand carried or cargo-shipped, may be covered by ATA Carnets.

Highlights of the Ins and Outs of ATA Carnets include:

  • ATA Carnet best practices
  • Proper customs clearance procedures
  • Managing inevitable breaches
  • Extensions on ATA Carnet exports
  • ATA Carnet country specific nuances
