2007 HS Classification changes – one more
value-added service for clients of Universal Logistics |

(Toronto, December 14, 2006)
On January 1, 2007, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) will implement one of the most extensive revisions to the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS), based on changes issued by the World Customs Organization (WCO).
These revisions affect thousands of individual tariff classifications. Some revisions are a direct one-to-one change, while others are a one-to-many change, i.e. one classification number has been redefined into 2 or more new classifications.
Following the issuing of the revised 2007 Customs Tariff by the CBSA on October 13, 2006, we created a dedicated team of our employees to handle the necessary conversion of tens of thousands of product database lines for our clients. We are providing this value added service with every effort to make the transition as seamless as possible for our clients. You may be contacted if additional information is required to determine an applicable tariff classification.
To check the status of your database conversion, please contact Brian Rowe, General Manager – Customs Consulting Services, at (905) 882-4880.
