What the agent does

An agent that audits every code, then keeps it right.

The agent classifies every SKU. A human signs off before anything reaches your broker.

01

Finds overpaid duty

Audits past years to show where you have been paying too much, then fixes the code going forward.

02

Zero disruption

Moving to the correct, defensible code touches nothing else. No new suppliers, no new contracts. Margin improves on the next entry.

03

Compliance, always on

Traditional or manufacturer-supplied codes get caught before customs does. New SKUs are classified as they launch, codes are refreshed every 90 days, and every code is backed by a defensibility report.

04

Duty engineering

Helps you spec or manufacture new SKUs so they legitimately qualify for a lower duty classification.

Why it matters

A wrong code is not a paperwork problem.

  1. Risk

    A misclassified code is more than paperwork. It means holds at port, mounting demurrage and storage fees, and an incorrect duty bill on shipments you have already made.

  2. Money

    Even a small correction is real money, often tens or hundreds of thousands a year at meaningful volume.

  3. Change

    Codes and rules change often. Staying ahead of them beats catching up after the fact.

The card layer

Turn duty into card spend

Your broker or forwarder advances your duty and bills you. Most accept a card for that invoice. Pay it on the Dash.fi card and earn up to 3% back*. For most brands that covers the broker's card fee, so duty stops being a cost you can only wire and becomes spend that earns, on card terms.

  • Duty is paid to your broker or forwarder, not to CBP.
  • Net 1 to Net 15, extended terms on request.

Savings compound because the corrected code applies to every future entry.

Cash back is up to 3% on duty and customs charges paid to a customs broker or freight forwarder on the Dash.fi card. Brokers and forwarders typically charge a fee of 2.5% to 3.5% to accept card payments; Dash.fi cash back is designed to offset that fee. U.S. Customs and Border Protection does not accept card payments for commercial entries. Availability depends on your broker accepting cards. Terms apply. Figures shown are estimates based on the inputs above and are not a guarantee of savings.

    Every code is reviewed by an experienced human before sign-off, with the reasoning documented so it holds up if customs asks.

  3. Switch and keep saving

    Correct codes flow to your broker, new SKUs get classified as they launch, and you pay duty on the Dash.fi card for up to 3% back. *
