THE AMALIE DIFFERENCE

Knowing your business partners, such as customers, vendors, distributors, and agents, is essential to comply with sanctions, export controls, and customs requirements. 

We can help you:

• Screen your business partners against global sanctions and restricted party lists
• Manage your continuous monitoring reviews to identify changes in business partner status 
• Perform third-party due diligence for your new or potential business partners, including reviewing matches and escalations

We believe proper import and export classification is the foundation of effective trade compliance processes. It is critical to understand what you make, what you buy, and what you sell or share. 

We can help you:

• Classify products, software, and technology under global dual-use and military export control regimes, including the U.S. Export Administration Regulations, the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), and other Wassenaar Arrangement member states’ export regimes 
• Determine customs tariff classifications under the global Harmonized System (HS) and U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS)
• Determine the applicability of encryption controls

Amalie can act as your import operations department to manage your customs brokers and keep your imports running smoothly.

We can help you:

• Manage all transactional communication with your broker about customs entries and required documentation 
• Provide classifications at the six-digit level for your broker’s consideration and review or for your internal database in accordance with your internal processes
• Manage import transactional audits, recordkeeping, and monitoring

Companies often have limited resources to manage special projects or even to backfill a role temporarily. In many cases, it is easier to get budget approval for a consultant than for a new full-time employee.

We can help you:

• Provide short or longer-term resources to fill staffing shortages
• Manage high-priority projects that require a temporary increase in capacity
• Supplement your team’s expertise with an outside resource without adding headcount
