Where should I receive customs consulting?

Hello. This is a customs attorney at Daeryun Law LLC.

As with you, the part that people find most confusing when first engaging in overseas import and export is precisely the tariffs and customs clearance procedures.

A tariff refers to a tax imposed on goods brought in from abroad, a tax imposed to ensure fairness in trade between countries and to protect domestic industry.

The legal procedures and tax issues that arise when goods cross the border, coming in or going out, are all subject to the Customs Act.

In particular, product categories with a cosmetic or pharmaceutical character, such as cosmetics, require not only tariffs but also complex administrative procedures together, such as approval from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, country-of-origin labeling, HS code classification, and confirmation of import requirements.

Therefore, because the classification criteria and tax rates can vary depending on the product's ingredients, use, and packaging form, prior analysis and expert review are important.

This is exactly when customs consulting is needed.

Customs consulting is tailored advisory that diagnoses the entire import and export process and presents measures for reducing tax rates and managing risk.

Daeryun Law LLC provides comprehensive consulting through the collaboration of not only customs attorneys but also customs specialist advisers who hold licensed customs broker qualifications, attorneys specializing in international trade, tax attorneys, corporate attorneys, and tax accountants.

In particular, rather than stopping at resolving tax issues, we comprehensively diagnose the company's import-export structure, contracts, and tax risks, and establish a customs strategy designed to prevent customs investigations.

In addition, in the case of the cosmetics industry, we carry out long-term customs consulting tailored to the company's growth stage, extending to customs clearance regulations and certification procedures by country, ways to utilize the exporting country's preferential tariff agreements (FTAs), and building a system for managing certificates of origin between countries.

Through this, in addition to saving on taxes, you can lay a foundation for stably responding to future customs investigations and tax appeal procedures.

For a company in the early stage of overseas expansion, now is precisely the right time to review your import-export system through customs consulting.

If you request a consultation with Daeryun Law LLC, we will analyze your company's product categories and market strategy together and design an efficient international transaction structure that can reduce customs risk.

If you prepare related documents together at the initial consultation, such as a list of import-export items and a draft transaction contract, we can establish a more specific strategy for you.
