Reduction of tariffs at the time of import by applying EPA!

Updated: Aug 5, 2022

For international transactions, tariffs are an inseperable issue.

However, tariffs are not always levied, and tariff-free / reduction of tax rates are possible if you understand the economic agreements of each country and take appropriate measures.

With that considered, the amount of information to be confirmed and prepared is enormous, and the necessary procedures are complicated and time-consuming.

Some customers state the following: "The reduction of tariffs in EPAs and FTAs ​​is attractive, but considering our limited number of labor and resources in the company, it's hard to handle…"

Toyota Tsusho will provide maximum support for this problem.
