Overview
This webinar addresses changes to NAFTA and KORUS as a consequence of the past year’s negotiations to renew, or discard these major bilateral US trade agreements. You will learn what changes have been agreed for NAFTA and KORUS, what are the implications for you as exporters to, or importers from NAFTA and KORUS; and how formerly duty-free qualifying goods imported into the United States may now be subject to additional duties due to Trump administrative actions and cases involving steel, aluminum, washing machines and numerous other products that otherwise would be entitled to duty-free status.
