Two Day Virtual FDA Import Training Course: Coping with FDA Import Delays, including COVID-19, Expedited Imports and Detentions (January 20-21, 2022)
Dublin, Nov. 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Coping with FDA Import Delays, including COVID-19, Expedited Imports and Detentions" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The FDA continues to change its import program to better manage new problems and to use new procedures to make the whole process easier.
The FDA and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) are relying more and more on computer programs to expedite the import process. When and how you use these programs can make a big difference in the net profit derived from even a single shipment. The new Voluntary Qualified Importer Program (VQIP) is one such example.
Another example is CBP's and FDA's implementation of the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) program became mandatory for importers in 2016. If you fail to correctly use new import procedures and programs, you will be operating under an expensive disadvantage.
