The single biggest issue affecting our industry at the moment is Cargo Management Re-Engineering (CMR), an Australian Customs initiative that is having a significant impact on each and every importer, no matter how large or small. It is essential that CMR compliance is being met on
a daily basis by your appointed Brokers. The POWERHOUSE Customs Consultancy service is your safety net to ensure that a Customs audit does not result in financial penalties being imposed on your business.

Our own in-house Customs Brokerage is strongly supported by our comprehensive consultancy service to ensure that our customers are compliant with the stringent CMR requirements that all importers now face.

Other expert services within our Consultancy division include :

• Audits of your past compliance
• AQIS / BIO-Security Import Permits and special arrangements
• Tariff reviews of your products
• Set-up of compliance models and systems
• Tariff Concessions & Policy By-Law projects
• Tariff and Valuation disputes
• Anti-Dumping advice
• Duty Drawback and TRADEX schemes
• Australian Free Trade Agreements

These are all areas that the Australian Customs Service are closely monitoring via their Audit Compliance teams.
