If your business has been importing goods from Canada or Mexico without taking advantage of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), you could be leaving money on the table. The good news? U.S. importers can file retroactively to claim refunds on duties paid, provided the goods meet USMCA’s rules of origin. At Kendrick Trade, we’re here to help you navigate this process. Learn how you can verify eligibility and reclaim those funds before it’s too late.

Do you know how much you’ve paid in duties on North American imports—and how much you could save with USMCA?

Many businesses are surprised to learn that the average U.S. import duty rate hovers around 2% to 3% of the total value of imported goods. For companies importing from Canada or Mexico, these costs can add up quickly. The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) offers a way to reduce or even eliminate these duties on qualifying goods, potentially saving your business a substantial amount. By ensuring your goods meet USMCA’s rules of origin, you could reclaim these funds—even retroactively. It’s worth exploring whether you’re maximizing these benefits!
