Implications of the latest Harley-Davidson ruling
02-02-2025

Commission case is particularly interesting.

Anyone who either advises importers or directly pursues what they believe have been incorrect trade decisions made by U.S. Customs and Protection (CBP) knows that the processes can not only be frustrating but also prohibitively expensive.
