Manufacturers Must React to Protect their Brands in this New Global Reality Four Levels of Adaptation 1. 2. 3. 4. Denial Coping Adapting Creating Not at Level 3 or above? You’re not in the game. Adapting • Get Global – there is no alternative • Leverage what you have that LCC’s don’t: – Application engineering, R&D, Quality Assurance, SAE testing, etc. – Data services, Cataloging, Product Management, Category Management – Long Grey Tail & New Numbers Adapting • Must Defend your Intellectual Property – Part numbers – UPCs – Digitally watermarked images – Traplines – Aggressive legal responses with violators – Address issue of eCats taking “ownership” of your data Creating • Look for Collaboration Opportunities – Supply Chain – both up & down • Compete in “Time” – Technology tools - faster, smarter, better • CPFR, Data Sync, Category Management, VMI • Requires accurate, standardized data – Speed to market • New parts for new apps • Catalog and product data Creating • Look past “channel partners” & develop branding relationships with “customers” – Installer “apps” • New pricing initiatives – Scalable, saleable services Let’s Talk About It Bob Moore President Bob Moore & Partners Trade Compliance and Security in Global Sourcing Jim Ryan, Gates Corporation Overview of topics • Customs Compliance and Reasonable Care • Security Issues (“9-11”) • Country of Origin Marking • Labeling – To be “Made in.. or Assembled in..” • • • • • Customs Valuation Tariff Classification Special Programs and Free Trade Agreements Recordkeeping INCOTERMS not UCC Terms Customs Compliance Reasonable Care - Pre- Customs “Mod Act” • Importer was responsible for providing accurate information to Customs – Commercial description of goods – Price paid plus add-ons and deductions • Customs was responsible for classification and appraisement (valuation) of merchandise Customs Compliance Reasonable Care - Post-Customs “MOD ACT” • Importer is now responsible for the classification and valuation of merchandise and providing other information needed by Customs • Importer must use “reasonable care” in carrying out these responsibilities Reasonable Care • Sources of information and guidance – Importer (internal communications) • • • • Purchase orders (description and terms) Legal department (royalties) Shipping (freight terms) Accounting (insurance, payments, adjustments, rebates) • Advertising (samples, “free” materials) • Research and development (assists) Reasonable Care • Sources of information and guidance – Manufacturer or supplier • • • • Invoice Credits or adjustments Substitution of goods or sources Lab analysis – Experts • Attorney • Customs broker/consultant • Documented advice Reasonable Care • Sources of information - U.S. Government – Customs rulings – Publications – Official websites – Customs offices and attachés Reasonable Care Important Sources of Information U.S. Customs and Boarder Protection - www.cbp.gov Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms - www.atf.treas.gov U.S. International Trade Commission - www.usitc.gov U.S. Trade Representative - www.ustr.gov U.S. Patent & Trademark Office - www.uspto.gov Department of Commerce - www.doc.gov Bureau of Industry and Security - www.bis.gov Reasonable Care • General Rule – ALL merchandise brought into the U.S., regardless of the method of importation (mail, baggage, courier, cargo) AND whether dutiable or not, whether for personal use, repair, sample, gift or sale, MUST be declared to Customs. • ie – samples in your suitcase – The type of declaration will vary with the type of importation and may involve an oral or written “declaration” or a formal or informal “entry.” Penalties and Enforcement • Civil Penalties – 19 U.S.C. § 1497 – Failure to declare • Forfeiture of undeclared item PLUS penalty equal to its value – 19 U.S.C. § 1592 – Fraud & Negligence • Entry with false data – 19 U.S.C. § 1509(g) Recordkeeping violations • If the failure to produce a required entry record was willful, a penalty up to $100,000 or 75% of the value, whichever is less may be imposed. – 18 U.S.C. § 545 • Knowing and willful violations with intent to defraud the U.S. – Smuggling and Clandestine importation • 5 years and/or $250,000 for individuals, $500,000 for companies and organizations Planning Ahead - Security Issues “9-11” Issues – Secure supply chain – – – C-TPAT participation • Canada has PIP • Mexico – BASC or C-TPAT • Europe has AEO Benefits • Prevents disasters • Helps companies develop better practices Other security elements - Advance cargo information • CSI • 24 Hour rule Country of Origin Marking • U.S. Customs Marking Requirements – How do we mark and declare goods – Unless Customs grants an exception, all foreign-origin merchandise imported into the U.S. must be marked with its country of origin – Marking must be conspicuous, legible and permanent so that the consumer can make informed decisions Country of Origin Marking • How to determine origin – Traditional “Substantial Transformation” Test • Simple assembly usually does not change origin • In order for further processing to affect the origin of the article it must result in an article with a new name, character or use • In other words, assembly in the US does not guarantee a US origin – FTA origin rules and NAFTA Marking Rules Labeling • FTC Origin Marking Requirements – post import restrictions for goods sold in the U.S. – “Made in USA” • Unqualified Claims – “All or Virtually All” U.S. content standard – California statutes can take precedent over federal rules • Qualified Claims – “Made in USA with U.S. and Foreign Parts” or “Assembled in USA” Why is Marking and Labeling Important?
