USCBP issues a warning

As importer you’re responsible for ensuring your goods are compliant with all country of origin rules.

Declaring a false country of origin to avoid tariffs is illegal and could result in significant consequences:

• Inventory seizure
• Steep fines
• Criminal charges
• Business disruption
• Loss of import privileges

Don’t fall for the trap of illegal transshipment.
