ACI’s 15th Advanced Forum on U.S. Customs Compliance and Enforcement is a two-day conference designed for customs compliance decision-makers who are amid navigating rapidly evolving U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) enforcement priorities and a new normal for U.S. customs compliance protocols. As customs compliance requirements and global supply chain stability continue to be disrupted by shifting tariffs, 232/301 investigations, forced labor compliance, and China/Iran geopolitical pressures, this event will guide you through the practicalities behind corporate customs compliance at a time where regulatory guidance is unclear and at times contradictory.

Increased enforcement by CBP and DOJ’s Trade Fraud Task Force, Trump’s turn-on-a-dime tariff policies, AI and automation deployment pressures, and volatile supply chains make peer-to-peer benchmarking around customs compliance management strategies more critical than ever.

Key sessions that will be explored include:

• Proactive Industry Perspectives: Navigating Refunds, Section 232/301 Tariffs and the Impacts of Increased CBP Enforcement Risks

• Creating Efficiencies Across the Customs Value Chain Through AI Integration: Predicting Regulatory Risk, Improving Trade Facilitation and Structuring Streamlined Supply Chains

• Preparing for 232 Investigations and Potential Tariff Evolvement: Cross Sector Focus on Critical Minerals, Pharmaceuticals, AI, and Semiconductors

• Section 301 Investigations on Manufacturing Overcapacity: Potential for Trade/Tariff Exposure, Supply Chain Disruption and Enforcement Outlook

The conference will feature perspectives from an esteemed speaker faculty, including:
