Are trade barriers discouraging you from exploring markets outside our borders? In this webinar, we will discuss free trade agreements – the countries that qualify for free trade with the U.S. and how to qualify your products. If your company is eligible for duty-free treatment to Canada, Mexico, Chile, Australia, Israel, and a host of other countries, it can mean an advantage against competitors from countries without those agreements.

Topics covered will also include:

• How Do Tariffs Work
• Who Pays Tariffs
• Ways to Avoid Tariffs
