New Duties on Canadian Imports

The Department of Homeland Security will add new import duties on certain articles that are "products of Canada" by modifying the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). If you import goods from Canada, you will face higher import taxes and should prepare for increased costs and changes to your import pricing and planning.
