Zepol is excited to debut its new Home Tab, which makes accessing the information you want faster and easier. With the new tab, you can quickly access your saved searches, view charts and tables, run a quick search, and much more. The goal is to make searching our platform of databases, efficient and painless.

“There’s nothing better than having everything you need all in one place,” says Zepol’s CEO Paul Rasmussen, “Our users are busy and we know that. We want this update to make their lives easier and get them to the data they need in as few clicks as possible.”

A Tariff directly relates to the harmonized tariff system codes (HTS) which imported/exported products are classified under. HTS codes let U.S. Customs know what tariff rate should be charged to specific products; this mainly applies to imports over exports.

Let’s say I’m an importer of “knotted carpets and textile floor coverings.” I classify my product under the HTS code 5701.10.9000, and the corresponding U.S. tariff would be the taxed percentage, which in this case is 4.5%.

A Duty is the actual amount of money paid on the imported/exported product. Although, the actual tax reference is the same thing, the import duty paid on “knotted carpets and textile floor coverings” depends on the quantity imported.

For example, if I imported $200,000 worth of the product to the United States last month, my duties would then be $9,000.

Most professionals use the terms interchangeably, which is correct, but in certain cases one is more appropriate than the other.

Zepol is thrilled to announce the addition of emailed reporting to our newest trade data tool, ComplianceIQ™. Users are able to search across multiple import-compliance data sets within one interface, saving the time of digging for critical compliance data.

ComplianceIQ™ users can now schedule emailed reports for any saved search, and receive alerts when new information is available for binding rulings, antidumping or countervailing investigations, tariffs, and more. Emailed reports can also be scheduled for specific time periods, demonstrating due diligence and reducing the risk of steep government penalties.
