July 16 (UPI) -- In a continued crackdown on Mexico's drug cartels, the Treasury Department announced Tuesday it placed sanctions on four Mexican companies and three Mexican nationals allegedly tied to fraudulent timeshare activity used against American citizens and linked to the notorious Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generacion.

"Cartel fraudsters run sophisticated teams of professionals who seem perfectly normal on paper or on the phone -- but in reality, they're money launderers expertly trained in scamming U.S. citizens," Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Brian E. Nelson said Tuesday in a news release.

The department's office of Foreign Assets Control alleges the four Mexican companies and three Mexican civilian accountants were directly or indirectly tied to timeshare fraud lead by the Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generacion, or styled in English as the Jalisco New Generation Cartel.

The criminal organization operates call centers in Mexico with scammers impersonating U.S.-based third-party timeshare brokers, attorneys or sales representatives, the U.S. government contends.

And about 6,000 U.S. citizens reported losing nearly $300 million from 2019 to 2023 via Mexican timeshare fraud crimes by targeting American timeshare owners often in various or complex ways in years-long schemes, according to the FBI, adding that totals what they can track legally as unreported crimes keep on.

Treasury points at four companies in Mexico: Constructora Sandgris, Pacific Axis Real Estate, Realty & Maintenance BJ and Bona Fide Consultores, which the department claims were the front companies doing business on behalf of those linked to Mexican drug cartel.

Nelson says unsolicited calls and emails may look legitimate but actually are made by cartel-backed criminals.

The Treasury claims the thee Puerto Vallarta-based accountants -- Griselda Margarita Arredondo, Xeyda Del Refugio Foubert and Emiliano Sanchez -- had family ties to individuals already cartel-linked and had allegedly aided in fraudulent activities to steal from U.S. citizens.

"If something seems too good to be true, it probably is," Nelson said.

The scam begins when a timeshare owner receives an offer to purchase their property, according to an attorney.

"They call you up and tell you that they have a buyer for your timeshare," Michael Finn of Florida's Finn Law Group, told ABC News. "They will send you documents that look real and tell you that you need to pay taxes before you can get your payment."

The Treasury Department and its partners are taking steps to deploy all available tools "to disrupt this nefarious activity, which funds things like deadly drug trafficking and human smuggling," said Nelson.

Five years ago in 2018 Treasury sanctioned two men it claimed laundered money and ran an international prostitution ring for the cartel.

The transnational CJNG, a violent Jalisco, Mexico-based organized crime syndicate, is known to traffic the large part of illicit fentanyl and other deadly drugs which typically enter via the southern U.S. border, having gone so far as to threaten Mexican journalists it views as giving the CJNG "unfair" news coverage.

And it uses illegal proceeds, like from its timeshare fraud schemes, to diversify its already-illicit revenue streams in order to keep financing other criminal activities, including the manufacturing and trafficking of fentanyl and other synthetic drugs, according to the federal government's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.

Police seizure of illicit fentanyl pills have skyrocketed in recent years, a new study found. And pills represented 49% of illicit fentanyl seizures in 2023, compared to 10% in 2017.

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection in April launched "Operation Plaza Strike" as an offensive targeting Mexican drug cartels to disrupt the flow of fentanyl and ingredients used to make the synthetic opioid that has become a leading death of young Americans.

However, this is not the first time the CJNG has been accused by the U.S. of similar crimes. Last year in March, the Biden Treasury placed similar sanction on eight other Mexican companies it alleged had took part in a similar timeshare fraud scheme on behalf of the Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generation.

Even at the time a Treasury official pointed to how in select Mexican tourist destinations the CJNG had already become by that point "heavily engaged" in timeshare fraud in places like Puerto Vallarta where it had gained a strategic foothold.

Last year, the U.S. claimed the accused cartel-backed companies had extracted money from victims by making unsolicited offers to buy their timeshares, and when victims accepted offers, Mexican scammers requested fictitious fees and taxes under the pretense they would facilitate the sale and give reimbursed money after closing.

On July 5th 1530, Scottish folk hero Johnnie Armstrong of Gilnockie was captured and hanged at Caerlanrig chapel.

This was an atrocious betrayal by the Stewart monarch James V, not just because Armstrong was lured into a trap with a "safe passage" promise, but up to 50 border reivers loyal to him were also put to death.

John Armstrong of Langholm and Staplegorton was a notorious Border reiver from the powerful Armstrong family. A plunderer and raider, he operated along the lawless borderlands and would change allegiances as the balance of power shifted. He led a band of a hundred and sixty men, despite having no income from rents. At this time there were no laws against the Reivers, it wasn't until 1667 The borders custom of paying blackmail to avoid kidnapping was outlawed;, both Scottish and English power brokers used the Border Reivers for their own political games until then.

Armstrong operated with impunity for some years under the protection of Robert Maxwell, 5th Lord Maxwell, as a leader of a gang of raiders. He burnt Netherby in Cumberland in 1527, in return for which William Dacre, 3rd Baron Dacre burnt him out at Canonbie in 1528. Gavin Dunbar, the Archbishop of Glasgow and Chancellor of Scotland, intervened with an excommunication for Armstrong, whose activities made the central authority look weak and were a hindrance to diplomacy with England. When King James V took personal control of the situation, Armstrong and his men were to be dealt with swiftly and severely as rebels. In 1530, he put together an army from the loyal Lairds and marched on the Borders to try to suppress what he saw were the worst of the ‘Theives and lymmaris’.

This led to the execution of William Cockburn of Henderland and Adam Scott of Tushielaw. Armstrong was also captured. The king had promised him safe conduct, but he was hanged and buried along with forty to fifty of his men in the chapel graveyard. A memorial opposite the new church was erected in 1897, and an older memorial stone marks the nearby grave site.

A romanticised picture of Armstrong was promoted by the nineteenth-century writings of Sir Walter Scott and Herbert Maxwell. The ballads first saw print in Allan Ramsay’s collection ‘Ever Green’ in 1724 and later appeared in Caw’s ‘Poetical Museum’ in 1784 and Scott’s Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border.

The trucking industry is one of the most regulated in the U.S. and Canada, which means compliance is always a top concern for transportation industries. This is especially true when it comes to cross-border freight. These days, border officials rely on digital documents to make the customs process smoother. Having the right software can make this process easy and reduce the risk of errors. Here are a few ways AVAAL eManifest software can make border crossing easy for your business.

Compliance Made Simple

To run a successful trucking business, compliance always needs to be a top priority. Not following the required customs process or accurately filling out documentation can result in lost time, reduced profits, and even legal consequences. Both Canada and the U.S. require carriers to submit their eManifests one hour prior and send their paperwork to customs brokers two hours prior to a driver’s arrival at the border. With AVAAL’s eManifest software, submitting this has never been easier. Our software is tailor-made to meet all the requirements so that you can cross the border without any hassles and be confident that you’re complying with all regulations.

Easy to Use Platform

Both the U.S. and Canada currently offer their own free eManifest portal. Unfortunately, these are difficult to use and not designed to support carriers that regularly cross the border. These platforms also don’t share data between ACE and ACI, creating issues for cross-border trucking companies. AVAAL eManifest is easy to use and reliable. It’s web-based software, meaning you can submit your manifests at any time and from anywhere. Our software also comes with 24/7 support, so we will be available to help you if any issues arise.

Tailored to Your Business' Needs

Not all trucking companies have the same needs, even when it comes to border-crossing. One thing that sets our eManifest software apart from others is that it can be tailor-fit to meet your company’s needs. Whether you’re a single operator or a multi-national company, we offer the greatest level of flexibility and have an eManifest plan to suit your requirements. We have a team of experts on hand ready to help you with all your businesses’ needs.

PAPS and PARS: How to Speed Up Your Cross-Border Shipments

PAPS (Pre-Arrival Processing System) and PARS (Pre-Arrival Review System) are essential components in cross-border trade between Canada and the United States. Let’s explore what they are and how they facilitate the movement of commercial goods across the Canadian and U.S. borders:

PARS (Pre-Arrival Review System):

Designation: PARS is used by the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) to clear commercial goods through customs.

Functionality: It involves bar code labels placed on commercial invoices. CBSA agents scan these labels to determine whether goods need immediate release or further inspection.

Integration: PARS works with the ACI (Advance Commercial Information) electronic manifest system in Canada.

PAPS (Pre-Arrival Processing System):

Designation: PAPS is the U.S. counterpart of PARS.

Functionality: Similar to PARS, it allows U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to process goods as they cross the border.

Integration: PAPS operates within the ACE (Automated Commercial Environment) electronic manifest system in the United States.

Similarities and Differences:

Both PARS and PAPS serve the same purpose: facilitating the movement of goods.

The main difference lies in their geographical scope: PARS for Canada, PAPS for the USA.

Having similar systems streamlines importing and exporting between the two countries.

When Do You Need PARS or PAPS Numbers?

Any commercial shipments entering Canada or the U.S. by truck use PARS or PAPS numbers as the default shipping type.

The PARS/PAPS process involves carriers, shippers, and customs brokers working together to ensure smooth border crossings.

Here’s how it works:

A carrier assigns a PARS or PAPS number to a shipment.

The customs broker uses this number to request the release of the shipment from customs.

The carrier prepares an eManifest listing using ACI (Canada) or ACE (U.S.), referencing the PARS or PAPS number.

Only when both the broker’s entry and the carrier’s eManifest listing are accepted can the goods proceed to the border.

Customs officers verify the PARS or PAPS number to release the goods or refer them for inspection.

In summary, PARS and PAPS play a crucial role in expediting cross-border trade, ensuring compliance, and enhancing efficiency for carriers and importers.

Ma'am, I just work here

Working in a pawn shop in Baldur's Gate sometimes means being privy to the most interesting items, even those that maybe you should have never put your hands on.

or: Raphael visits the most unfortunate little pawn shop worker

It's another quiet day at the "Brokering Gate", a little smarmy pawn office that lies between the recently collapsed Steel Watcher Foundry and the Guilt docks, a blocked-off area for incoming trade that remains just barely under the table. Ever since the rubble of that huge flying brain mass came down, there has been a weird rotting note to the air that borders on repugnant just barely. To keep the worst of it out, most of the "Gate's" shutters have been closed and enchanted with a shield-type spell – Yas doesn't care much for the details – due to their windows being blown to shittereens during the initial blast. It's a wonder, or curse depending on who you ask, that the shop still stands.

Yas hates, absolutely loathes working at the "Brokering Gate" on account of its weird customers and despicable owner, but she also hates not having anything to eat or a roof over her head, so in the end she just has to bite the bulette. And with the evasion of total annihilation comes some perks. People find the most interesting things to sell amidst the chaos coming to their silly little pawn shop, their competitors having mostly been wiped out or turned into ilithids.

One of those people had surprisingly been none other than THE hero, Tav, and their merry band of weirdos waltzing into the store, most of them heaving under the weight of overfilling pouches and backpacks, the jingle-jangle filling the air when the bags hit the ground. It had been a bad day for their accounts but a good one for stuffing the shop up the roof with items of varying usefulness.

One of these items had been a trilogy of diaries. As soon as Yas opened them during a lull in the shop she knew she had found her new obsession for the next weeks. Two of the three books were filled to the brim with mischief, silly little poems, intricate plans, or just daily developments, all written by some seemingly third-grade bard working hard to fill his made-up fantasy with lore. The third one however stopped halfway through, leaving an open end to the saga of the writer, a self-serving schemer hungering for power over the Nine Hells, and his assumed dalliance with the so-called hero, a tadpoled fool trapsing through the world the writer seemingly controlled.

Usually, Yas wouldn't go for such bottom-of-the-barrel fiction, but after skimming over them she had decided to fully embrace their weirdness.

Now it's deep into the afternoon and instead of having another go at the inventory she stands entranced at the counter ruffling through the pages, giggling to herself.

"Predilection. Who talks like that?", she quietly murmurs, although a part of her envies the artful usage of these special little words. With a grin, Yas comforts herself by imagining the fop with this kind of speech trying to order a beer at the bar she works her evening shifts at.

The soft little chime from the bell above their entrance takes her back to the store and she mentally readies her customer service personality. In walks an older man, a slight limp to his right leg, steadying himself on an intricate wooden cane with golden inlays, the soft tock of it accompanying the scraping of his "good" foot across the floor. Yet something about his demeanor stops her from emphasizing with him. His "warm" smile sends shivers down her spine, not the good kind, his left hand readies itself in the air for a grand gesture and his clothes look preened and faultless. She knows she probably can't hide it behind her fake smile, but all she feels is disdain.

Yet when the man starts to talk, she does notice that his voice has a deep rumble that resonates with her. Yas gets a good look at his sharp features and soft skin, since no matter what he says, he can't seem to stand still, instead opting for theatrical movement and emphasis on his words with every twitch of his face. "My dear bespackled attendant of this fine éstablissement, may I use some of your precious time to inquire about some items that might have found their way into your possession? Obviously, your help will be well compensated should you have any of these items at hand. I have had quite the adventure searching all over town and imagine my unbridled surprise upon finding out that there was still one last market to peruse. Resting amidst the-"

By this point Yas has already put two and two together, looking forward to the peacock finishing his exhausting monologue and confirming her suspicion. In the meantime she nods politely along, adding some "Uhuu's" and "no way's" here and there, nearly draining her affirmative vocabulary, until she finally has it and simply moves the diary she had been reading across the counter.

That shuts him up all right. As soon as his eyes spy the unassuming, worn-down cover, a wave of joy washes over his features, quickly hidden away just so, behind his noble mask.

She hopes that between his grandiose entrance and the following speech, he never realized that she was actively reading one of his diaries, before pushing it out of the way. When trying to glean his face for a reaction all she gets is the usual calm demeanor.

"I'm sorry for interrupting you, but from my colleagues' descriptions, this book and its siblings might be the item you're looking for. If you would like we can verify this by counter-checking the text with your description." Yas is trying everything not to let her face betray that she knows about the innards of this book or that she can't believe that the writer is the guy in front of her. It's never good to directly laugh at a customer.

A shadow crawls over the customer's face and suddenly her giddiness dissipates into fear. Unlike before, this time she feels like the show of emotion is meant for her. Yas quickly puts up her hands in defense: "I'm so sorry that my colleagues rustled around in your private property but they had to make sure none of the books were cursed or dangerous in a similar fashion. Obviously, I have no interest in further violating your privacy."

Now a toothy smile flashes across his features and instead of the cane he now leans onto the counter, somehow still being taller than Yas standing at full height. "My dear friend, I am so very grateful for your understanding. The loss of these precious memories has left me quite hurt and it would not do to add to this pain. There is no need for you to read more of the text, there should be a sigil on the blurp, simply lay it out here and I will show you."

With an unsure grin of her own, she does as he bids and lays down the book, blurp for both to see. A swift motion later he holds a dagger in his hand, much to the shock of Yas, yet before she can exclaim her bewilderment, he simply pokes himself in the finger and vanishes it just as quickly as he conjured it. A distinct smell of sulphur fills her nose and she gets a bit queasy looking at two drops of blood spilling on the page of the book.

A second ticks by and suddenly a fiery symbol burns itself into the book.

The silence afterward is palatable.

"Yeah. I guess this is yours, huh." Yas is sure that she is not getting paid enough to deal with what kind of fiery devil shit this might be, so she just shrugs and goes to the backroom to get the other books. She wants this man out of the shop as soon as possible.

As soon as she comes back into his view, he starts up again: "Thank you very much, dear. Say, you don't happen to have some hellishly delicious paintings lying around?"

Oh no.

She knows very well where they are, but considering what Cambrin, her boss, has done to them, she decides she won't be the one to bring this up.

"There might be some more in the personal vault of my employer, but he is unfortunately not in today and won't allow anyone else into his office." Before she finishes the sentence anger flashes into his eyes and his nose scrunches, but she has an idea to smoothe him over immediately. "I'm sure he will come in in the evening to make sure everything is up to speed. Considering how late it already is, it shouldn't be long now."

That somewhat appeases her customer and she allows herself a moment of respite.

He purses his lip, a hand to his chin as if to seriously consider what she just said. "Well, I think I can offer up some more of my precious time for your employer, even though it will certainly throw around my plans for the evening. Will some of your other colleagues be there tonight? Specifically, those that wanted to sate their curiosity with these books?" He is all smiles but there's a dangerous shine to his gaze, that renders his brown eyes almost black.

"The evening shift should be taking over then, yes. We usually stay open late into the night, so we have to change it up. Considering the work plan they might be there, but I can't make any promises."

He pushes himself further onto the counter to lean closer to her face as if to share a secret just between the two of them. "Surely you have heard of the little idiom of the fortunate rat, fleeing the ship before it tragically goes down with its captain. I suppose, there are certain situations in which one should adhere to that principle, saving one's skin before it is too late." He gifts Yas another smile, this time arguably more toothy than before, his canines growing before her eyes.

She can't stop herself from mumbling: "That would make me the rat I presume." They both lock eyes and all he does to acknowledge Yas is a slight tilt of the head.

Living in Baldur's Gate is hard enough as it is, with weird tentacle monsters, bandits, and bloody murders seeping into the daily survival. And now this… thing was making it very obvious that the shop was going to see his reckoning. Maybe it was finally time to leave the city for good.

With a deep inhale she takes a step back and fishes the key to the store out of her pocket, puts it on the counter with a soft clink and slips it over to the stranger.

"A very wise decision."

Without another word or acknowledgment, she steps out behind the bar and slowly makes her way to the exit. Before she can fully leave, however, the stranger has to get in another sentence:

"I do hope you remember to keep privacy matters a higher priority from now on, my dear. After all, you never know who might be watching."

She can only nod, locking eyes with him once again before she all but runs out of the store.

The next day she will walk past the store, finding it surrounded by Flaming Fists trying to put out the fires and talking about the charred corpses inside.

One of my biggest pet peeves at my job is when clients don’t realize that we are a customs broker, not the freaking Canadian Border Services Agency themselves.

Customs brokers are not the ones who make the decisions on whether or not your shit can come over the border, we’re just the ones who tell CBSA what you’re bringing in. THEY make the decision.

If your shit rejects and the CBSA is saying there’s something missing or invalid, but we’ve already correctly entered all of the information you’ve given us, then your info is incorrect or invalid. And if it’s not then you can take it up with the actual CBSA not the freaking customs broker. 🙄

How Global Payment Systems Empower Cruise Lines?

Cruise lines offer extensive leisure services, presenting travelers with luxurious places to stay, entertainment, trips, and cashless experiences on board. They depend on effective payment systems to manage large numbers of transactions, support various currencies, and guarantee safe, easy payments for reservations, purchases on the ship, and services from vendors. For cruise lines, a proficient international payment service is essential for keeping operations running smoothly, enhancing financial management, and ensuring outstanding guest experiences.

What are International Payment Services?

International payments are also known as cross-border payments. Global payment services allow individuals and businesses to send money across different countries supporting global trade and personal transactions. These transactions often require converting one currency into another. Companies involved in international payments should adhere to banking rules and exchange rates of both the sending and receiving countries. International payments are essential for global commerce and cover various commercial operations such as paying foreign suppliers for products, compensating international staff and receiving payments from customers in other countries.

Understanding Various Aspects of International Transactions

Currency conversion is an essential aspect of global transactions as foreign exchange rates define the value of one currency against the other. Some services charge extra, raising the cost of person sending money.

The real cost of overseas transactions is impacted by transfer fees, hidden cost and recipient fees. Transfer fees may vary depending on the service provider, the amount transferred and countries involved. Sometimes, recipients incur charges too, especially when getting money in different currencies.

International payment system uses strong security methods to protect transactions. These include encryption, two-factor authentication and adherence to anti-money laundering standards to boost protection against scams.

Each country has different regulations regarding cross-border transactions including the maximum amount that can be transmitted and specific tax rules.

Different Ways to Send Money Abroad

Wire Transfer: It is one of the most commonly used methods to transfer money across borders. It involves electronic transfer of funds between financial institutions located in different countries. Wire transfers are secure and commonly used for initiating large-value transactions.

Online Payment Platforms: Different digital payment services also provide international money transfers. These sites often have choices for currency exchange and different ways to receive funds. Money can be transferred through bank accounts or debit/credit cards.

Foreign Exchange Brokers: They specialize in assisting firms and individuals to exchange currencies and make international payments. These brokers usually provide better rates and reduced charges compared to various other financial institutions.

The Role of Cloud-based Platform in Cruise Line Payments

Cruise lines have to operate in different countries and they have to engage with clients around the world. A dependable payment system is required to make payments for covering fuel or port charges, purchasing supplies for ships and arranging services for passengers. Zil.US simplifies international payments by providing wire transfer.

International wire transfer involves the process of transferring funds between different countries, specific codes like SWIFT/IBAN are required for identification purposes. On the other hand, domestic wire transfer involves moving money within the same country and typically requires routing and account numbers. With the platform, firms can manage both types of transfers.

Cruise lines that operate in various regions can take advantage of ability to open business checking accounts in the US without the need to be physically present there. This feature supported by the Zil.US enables firms to receive payments in US dollars and avoid poor exchange rates. By making use of the US-based account, firms can also make the process of settling payments to suppliers and partners in the US more straightforward.

Controlling the workforce and operational expenses on a cruise ship can be complex due to various costs that arise each day. Firms can tackle expenses accurately using corporate expense cards provided by Zil.US. One can also issue multiple cards from a single account, guaranteeing that costs are correctly distributed and recorded. Plus, there is an option to lock the cards in case of theft or loss, this ensures that only authorized persons have access to this card.

Financial transparency is essential for smooth operations of any firm. Cruise lines can maintain complete oversight over their financial activities as Zil.US records every transaction. Through the platform, they can monitor all incoming and outgoing transactions, track expenses and check account balances whenever they need. Instant monitoring also helps to swiftly detect any irregularities or payment issues.

Businesses seeking to broaden their market presence and strengthen their operations worldwide must have a strong international payment operation. Platforms like Zil.US help businesses in overcoming difficulties associated with overseas transactions through safe, quick and affordable alternatives. Businesses can confidently handle payment in multiple currencies and increase customer contentment with features like competitive exchange rates, reduced costs and strong security measures provided by the platform. The appropriate international payment solutions make managing money more straightforward and create new chances for expansion in the global economy.

Difference Between DAP, DDP & DAT in Shipping: Aviation Imports Simplified

Shipping terminology can often be confusing, especially for businesses involved in international trade. Terms like DAP, DDP, and DAT are commonly used in the world of shipping and logistics, yet they have distinct meanings that are crucial to understand for both sellers and buyers. These terms relate to the delivery responsibilities, cost structure, and risks associated with international shipping. In this article, we will explore the difference between DAP, DDP, and DAT in shipping, with a specific focus on how they apply to aviation imports and worldwide airplane hardware imports.

Understanding DAP, DDP, and DAT

DAP (Delivered at Place), DDP (Delivered Duty Paid), and DAT (Delivered at Terminal) are Incoterms (International Commercial Terms), standardized terms used in global shipping. These terms define the roles and responsibilities of both buyers and sellers in international transactions, particularly when it comes to shipping costs, insurance, and customs duties.

DAP (Delivered at Place): Under DAP, the seller is responsible for delivering the goods to a specified destination. This includes transportation costs, insurance, and handling up until the point of delivery. However, the buyer is responsible for paying any import duties, taxes, and customs clearance fees. The key feature of DAP is that the seller assumes the risk and cost of transportation, but not the final customs duties.

DDP (Delivered Duty Paid): The most buyer-friendly Incoterm is DDP, where the seller assumes full responsibility. The seller not only handles shipping but also pays for any import duties, taxes, and customs clearance fees at the destination. DDP delivery service simplifies the process for the buyer, as they only need to wait for their goods to arrive without dealing with complex customs processes. The seller covers all the costs and risks, making this a comprehensive service for international trade.

DAT (Delivered at Terminal): With DAT, the seller delivers the goods to a terminal or port in the buyer’s country. The seller is responsible for all costs until the goods reach the terminal. However, the buyer takes over from that point, covering any subsequent charges, including import duties and transportation to the final destination. DAT differs from DAP in that it involves a specific delivery point, usually a port or terminal, while DAP can refer to a broader destination, including a business address or warehouse.

The Role of Aviation Imports and Worldwide Airplane Hardware Imports

For businesses involved in aviation imports or worldwide airplane hardware imports, understanding the differences between DAP, DDP, and DAT is vital. The complexity of shipping aviation parts, such as aircraft engines, avionics, and other specialized components, requires clarity on the cost structure and delivery terms. In this case, the choice between DAP, DDP, and DAT can have significant implications.

When dealing with aviation imports, a DDP service in the United States would be particularly beneficial for businesses that wish to avoid navigating the complexities of U.S. customs and import duties. With DDP delivery service, the seller ensures that all customs duties and taxes are paid, allowing the buyer to receive their goods without any surprises at the border. This can streamline the import process, making it ideal for parts critical to the aviation industry.

On the other hand, DAP might be chosen by sellers who want to limit their responsibility after the goods are delivered to a particular location. In the case of worldwide airplane hardware imports, the buyer may prefer to handle customs clearance, as they may have established relationships with local customs brokers or have specific requirements regarding duty payments. This is where DAP can work well, as it gives more control to the buyer, especially in countries with complex or high import duties.

The Importance of DDP Service in the United States

One of the most common destinations for global imports, including aviation imports, is the United States. DDP service in the United States is highly advantageous because it simplifies the process for the buyer. Since the U.S. imposes strict regulations and high tariffs on certain goods, especially aerospace parts, DDP delivery service allows the seller to manage these complexities on behalf of the buyer.

Using DDP means that the seller will arrange for all shipping, customs clearance, and payment of duties in the United States. The buyer only needs to receive the goods, which is ideal for companies that do not have a dedicated import department or do not want to invest in understanding the nuances of U.S. customs regulations. It also helps mitigate the risk of unexpected charges upon arrival, providing peace of mind to the buyer.

The Delivery Duty Paid Service Advantage

For any business involved in worldwide airplane hardware imports, the Delivery Duty Paid Service is an option that makes shipping straightforward. The Delivery Duty Paid model is all about reducing risk and making sure the goods are delivered to the buyer's doorstep with all associated costs paid in advance. When using DDP, businesses can expect to avoid unexpected delays or additional costs upon arrival, a major advantage when dealing with highly regulated products like aircraft parts.

In many cases, the complexity of shipping aviation imports can make businesses hesitant about the prospect of hidden fees or unexpected delays. By using DDP, businesses can manage their cash flow more effectively because they will know the total cost of the import upfront. Whether it’s a simple DDP delivery service or a more complex one involving specialized parts, this service is a win-win for both sellers and buyers in the aviation industry.

The Import Challenge for Clinical Gadgets

Beyond aviation, import challenges for clinical gadgets are becoming increasingly common. These gadgets, such as diagnostic equipment, medical devices, and other critical clinical tools, often face stringent regulations regarding safety and importation. The import of clinical gadgets shares some of the same complexities as aviation imports in terms of customs, certifications, and import duties. Understanding Incoterms like DAP, DDP, and DAT is essential for any business dealing with these products.

For instance, a company importing clinical gadgets into the United States under DDP service would have to deal with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements and other regulatory bodies. The DDP delivery service ensures that all paperwork is handled by the seller, preventing any delays at customs. This approach is particularly useful for businesses looking to avoid disruptions when importing medical or clinical products that require special handling or certification.

Summary: Key Differences in Shipping Terms

In conclusion, when shipping goods internationally, understanding the difference between DAP, DDP, and DAT in shipping is crucial to streamline the import process and reduce risks. While DAP gives more responsibility to the buyer, DDP offers the most convenience, with the seller handling all shipping, customs duties, and taxes. DAT is somewhere in between, as the seller delivers to a terminal and the buyer is responsible for further transportation and customs.

For industries dealing with aviation imports, worldwide airplane hardware imports, or even more specialized imports like clinical gadgets, choosing the right Incoterm can make or break the shipping process. Whether opting for DDP service in the United States or utilizing DDP delivery service for international shipments, selecting the appropriate Incoterm ensures that both sellers and buyers are clear on their responsibilities, allowing for smooth international trade and timely delivery.

When considering Delivery Duty Paid service, it's important to note how this option can simplify import challenges, particularly in industries where regulations are strict, and delays can be costly. By understanding these terms and applying them strategically, businesses can navigate the complexities of international shipping with greater confidence and efficiency.

Let Export Order : Everything You Need to Know

If you are an exporter, it is imperative to know that moving perishable cargo across international borders is a bit complex. You must adhere to the varied rules and regulations of the different countries as imposed by the international government. The Customs Department monitors all import and export activities and adheres to the legal guidelines. Your cargo will receive a Let Export Order (LEO) upon completion of the necessary customs formalities.

What is Let Export Order in Export?

The LEO full form in export stands for Let Export Order, which represents the final legal step in the export process for transporting perishable goods from one port to another. This Let Export Order procedure, handled by the Indian Customs Department, assesses the value of your perishable goods and examines them before they can be officially exported from India. 

Who issues the Let Export Order?

The customs department is responsible for inspecting your perishable cargo moving in and out of India. Once an exporter or CHA completes the legal export formalities, the customs department issues a Let Export Order for the specific cargo

What is Leo Copy in Export to fill out the online procedure?

The CBIC has implemented digital copies of the shipping bill to make customs processes faceless, contactless, and paperless, as stated on July 22, 2020.

Printing three copies of the shipping bill (customs, exporter, and export promotion) will no longer be considered.

A digital PDF out-of-charge (OOC) replaces the traditional method.

The final Let Export Order (LEO) copy of the shipping bill will be sent via mail to customs brokers and exporters.

This electronic copy can be shared with the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) banks, DGFT, and others for various purposes.

The final Let Export Order (LEO) of the shipping bill consists of the following: 

The PDF shipping bill will be electronically signed and include an inaccessible QR code that can be scanned with the ICETRACK mobile app to verify the authenticity of the document. The QR Code includes details like SB No., SB Date, FOB Value, and Package Details.

The QR Code also has a version number to check the document version via ICEGATE .

Although printing transference copies is now optional, many logistics operators still use printouts. Thus, the Directorate General of Systems has made it compulsory to send the eGatepass PDF copy of the shipping bill by email.

At Citrus Freight, you ship your perishables without any worries!

How to Export-Import Customs Tariff Works?

Exporting and importing goods across international borders involves navigating complex customs procedures, including understanding and complying with customs tariffs. These tariffs serve as taxes or duties imposed on goods entering or leaving a country. A comprehensive understanding of customs tariffs is crucial for businesses involved in global trade to ensure compliance and avoid unnecessary costs.

What Are Customs Tariffs?

Customs tariffs are financial charges levied by a government on goods being imported or exported. These tariffs are typically calculated as a percentage of the value of the goods and are designed to:

Protect domestic industries by making imported goods more expensive.

Generate revenue for the government.

Regulate trade flows between countries.

Tariffs are detailed in a country’s customs tariff schedule, which classifies goods based on a globally recognized system called the Harmonized System (HS) Code.

Understanding the Harmonized System (HS) Code

The Harmonized System (HS) Code is an internationally standardized system of names and numbers to classify traded goods. Developed by the World Customs Organization (WCO), it consists of:

6-digit base code: Universal across all member countries.

Additional digits: Added by individual countries for further classification and tariff calculations.

For instance, an HS code for electronics might look like 8542.31.00, where each segment denotes a specific classification level. Accurate classification is essential to ensure the correct tariff rate is applied.

How to Calculate Customs Tariffs

Customs tariffs are calculated based on three primary factors:

Classification of Goods: Determined by the HS code.

Valuation of Goods: The customs value is typically based on the CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) value, which includes:

The product cost.

Shipping charges.

Insurance costs.

Country of Origin: Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and preferential trade arrangements may reduce or eliminate tariffs for goods originating from certain countries.

For example: If you import electronics valued at $10,000 with a tariff rate of 10%, the customs tariff would be $1,000.

Types of Customs Tariffs

Ad Valorem Tariff: Calculated as a percentage of the value of the goods. Example: 10% of the CIF value.

Specific Tariff: A fixed fee based on a specific quantity, such as $5 per unit.

Compound Tariff: Combines both ad valorem and specific tariffs. Example: 5% of the CIF value + $2 per unit.

How to Navigate Export-Import Customs Tariffs

Step 1: Determine the HS Code

Identify the appropriate HS code for your goods. Incorrect classification can result in penalties or delays.

Step 2: Understand Country-Specific Regulations

Check the customs tariff schedule of the importing country. Use official government websites or consult a customs broker for accurate information.

Step 3: Review Free Trade Agreements (FTAs)

Determine whether your goods qualify for reduced tariffs under an FTA. Proper documentation, such as a Certificate of Origin, is required to claim benefits.

Step 4: Calculate Landed Costs

Incorporate customs tariffs into the overall cost of your goods. Include transportation, insurance, and any additional duties to determine the landed cost.

Step 5: Prepare Necessary Documentation

Essential documents include:

Commercial Invoice

Packing List

Bill of Lading

Certificate of Origin (if applicable)

Challenges in Customs Tariff Compliance

Classification Errors: Misclassification can lead to penalties or overpayment of duties.

Valuation Disputes: Discrepancies in declared value and customs assessment can result in fines.

Regulatory Changes: Frequent updates to tariff schedules and trade agreements can complicate compliance.

Documentation Issues: Missing or incorrect documents can delay customs clearance.

The Role of Technology in Managing Customs Tariffs

Technology has revolutionized how businesses manage customs tariffs. Tools like Trade Management Software (TMS) and Automated Customs Systems streamline processes such as:

HS code classification.

Tariff rate calculation.

Document generation.

Real-time updates on regulatory changes.

These solutions help minimize errors, reduce delays, and improve efficiency in global trade operations.

Customs Tariffs in Practice: A Case Study

Imagine a company importing textiles from Vietnam into the United States. Here's how they navigate customs tariffs:

Classify Goods: Use the HS code 5208.21.00 for woven fabrics of cotton.

Determine Tariff Rate: The U.S. imposes a 12% ad valorem tariff on these goods.

Check for FTAs: Under the U.S.-Vietnam Trade Agreement, the tariff is reduced to 8% if specific rules of origin are met.

Prepare Documentation: Submit required documents, including a Certificate of Origin, to claim the reduced rate.

By accurately managing these steps, the company saves costs and ensures smooth clearance.

Best Practices for Managing Customs Tariffs

Regular Training: Stay updated on classification rules and regulatory changes.

Use Trusted Advisors: Employ customs brokers or consultants for complex transactions.

Leverage Technology: Invest in automated solutions to manage classification and compliance.

Audit Regularly: Conduct internal audits to identify and correct errors in tariff calculations.

Conclusion

Understanding how export-import customs tariffs work is crucial for businesses engaged in international trade. Proper classification, compliance with regulations, and leveraging technology can significantly reduce costs and enhance operational efficiency.

The trucking industry is one of the most regulated in the U.S. and Canada, which means compliance is always a top concern for transportation industries. This is especially true when it comes to cross-border freight. These days, border officials rely on digital documents to make the customs process smoother. Having the right software can make this process easy and reduce the risk of errors. Here are a few ways AVAAL eManifest software can make border crossing easy for your business.

Compliance Made Simple To run a successful trucking business, compliance always needs to be a top priority. Not following the required customs process or accurately filling out documentation can result in lost time, reduced profits, and even legal consequences. Both Canada and the U.S. require carriers to submit their eManifests one hour prior and send their paperwork to customs brokers two hours prior to a driver’s arrival at the border. With AVAAL’s eManifest software, submitting this has never been easier. Our software is tailor-made to meet all the requirements so that you can cross the border without any hassles and be confident that you’re complying with all regulations.

Easy to Use Platform Both the U.S. and Canada currently offer their own free eManifest portal. Unfortunately, these are difficult to use and not designed to support carriers that regularly cross the border. These platforms also don’t share data between ACE and ACI, creating issues for cross-border trucking companies. AVAAL eManifest is easy to use and reliable. It’s web-based software, meaning you can submit your manifests at any time and from anywhere. Our software also comes with 24/7 support, so we will be available to help you if any issues arise.

Tailored to Your Business' Needs Not all trucking companies have the same needs, even when it comes to border-crossing. One thing that sets our eManifest software apart from others is that it can be tailor-fit to meet your company’s needs. Whether you’re a single operator or a multi-national company, we offer the greatest level of flexibility and have an eManifest plan to suit your requirements. We have a team of experts on hand ready to help you with all your businesses’ needs.

PAPS and PARS: How to Speed Up Your Cross-Border Shipments

PAPS (Pre-Arrival Processing System) and PARS (Pre-Arrival Review System) are essential components in cross-border trade between Canada and the United States. Let’s explore what they are and how they facilitate the movement of commercial goods across the Canadian and U.S. borders:

PARS (Pre-Arrival Review System):

Designation: PARS is used by the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) to clear commercial goods through customs.

Functionality: It involves bar code labels placed on commercial invoices. CBSA agents scan these labels to determine whether goods need immediate release or further inspection.

Integration: PARS works with the ACI (Advance Commercial Information) electronic manifest system in Canada.

PAPS (Pre-Arrival Processing System):

Designation: PAPS is the U.S. counterpart of PARS.

Functionality: Similar to PARS, it allows U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to process goods as they cross the border.

Integration: PAPS operates within the ACE (Automated Commercial Environment) electronic manifest system in the United States.

Similarities and Differences:

Both PARS and PAPS serve the same purpose: facilitating the movement of goods.

The main difference lies in their geographical scope: PARS for Canada, PAPS for the USA.

Having similar systems streamlines importing and exporting between the two countries.

When Do You Need PARS or PAPS Numbers?

Any commercial shipments entering Canada or the U.S. by truck use PARS or PAPS numbers as the default shipping type.

The PARS/PAPS process involves carriers, shippers, and customs brokers working together to ensure smooth border crossings.

Here’s how it works:

A carrier assigns a PARS or PAPS number to a shipment.

The customs broker uses this number to request the release of the shipment from customs.

The carrier prepares an eManifest listing using ACI (Canada) or ACE (U.S.), referencing the PARS or PAPS number.

Only when both the broker’s entry and the carrier’s eManifest listing are accepted can the goods proceed to the border.

Customs officers verify the PARS or PAPS number to release the goods or refer them for inspection.

In summary, PARS and PAPS play a crucial role in expediting cross-border trade, ensuring compliance, and enhancing efficiency for carriers and importers.

How To Import A Vehicle From The US To Canada: A Step-By-Step Guide

If you're considering bringing a vehicle from the United States to Canada, you're in the right place. Importing a car from the US to Canada might seem like a complicated process, but with the right steps and guidance, it can be straightforward. This guide will help you understand the key requirements and processes involved in importing a vehicle from the US to Canada.

1. Understand the Requirements

Before you can import your vehicle, you must first ensure that it complies with Canadian regulations. Vehicles brought into Canada must meet specific safety, emissions, and labeling standards set by the Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS). The vehicle should be less than 15 years old for easy compliance, as older vehicles may require additional documentation or modifications. How To Import A Vehicle From Us To Canada

2. Ensure the Vehicle is Eligible

Not every car from the US is eligible for import into Canada. Some vehicles may be restricted due to safety, emissions, or age concerns. It’s important to check the Government of Canada’s Registrar of Imported Vehicles (RIV) database to see if your vehicle is admissible.

Additionally, certain vehicles may require modifications to meet Canadian standards. For example, headlights, speedometer settings, and other key parts may need adjustments before importation.

3. Gather Necessary Documents

You'll need several documents for the import process. These typically include:

Vehicle title (proof of ownership)

Bill of sale

Proof of insurance

US export certificate (if applicable)

These documents are required when you reach the Canadian border for the customs clearance process.

4. Customs Clearance at the Border

Once your vehicle is in transit, you'll need to clear it through Canadian customs. This is an important step in the process. You will need to:

Present all necessary documents.

Pay any applicable duties, taxes, or fees.

Ensure the vehicle complies with the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) regulations.

It’s recommended to hire a customs broker to assist with this process to avoid delays or confusion.

5. Register Your Vehicle in Canada

After your vehicle clears customs, the next step is to register it in Canada. This involves getting a Canadian Vehicle Inspection to ensure it complies with Canadian standards. Once approved, you'll receive your Canadian registration and license plates.

It’s important to note that the province you live in may have specific registration requirements, so check with your local licensing authority for additional steps.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How much does it cost to import a vehicle from the US to Canada?

The cost of importing a vehicle can vary based on factors such as the vehicle's value, modifications, and the shipping method. You’ll need to budget for shipping fees, customs duties, taxes, and any required modifications.

On average, the process can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. This depends on various factors, including paperwork, inspections, and shipping times.

3. Can I import a vehicle older than 15 years?

Yes, but the process may be more complicated. Vehicles over 15 years old may require modifications to meet Canadian safety and emissions standards.

4. Do I need to pay duties or taxes when importing a vehicle?

Yes, you will likely need to pay import duties and taxes when bringing your car into Canada. The amount depends on the vehicle's value, and you can consult the Canada Border Services Agency for more details.
