Tariffs keep changing. The firms that keep up win the work.
New surtaxes, more trade rules and tighter audits make every entry harder. Adhoc turns that into business you can take on.
More entries, same team
Clients email documents as they do today. Adhoc drafts the entry; your team reviews and submits.
Win the complex shipments

Fewer rejections, faster release
Entries are checked against CBSA’s rules before they are sent, so fewer come back.
No surprises for your clients
Every draft uses the rates in force today, including new surtaxes and tariff rulings.
Codes your team can defend
Each tariff code comes with the reason it was chosen.

One missed surtax costs a client thousands.
A real line: galvanized steel sheet from the United States. The duty is free, but a 50% surtax adds 7,018 CAD, and the code itself may be wrong. Adhoc catches both before the entry is filed.

Steel Sheets – Coated HDG G60, Gage 20, 30ft x 3ft
| Charge | Rate | CAD |
|---|---|---|
| Customs duty, CUSMA | Free | 0.00 |
| U.S. surtax CN 26-23 | 50% | 7,018.00 |
| SIMA duties | None in force | 0.00 |
| GST on value plus surtax | 5% | 1,052.70 |
| Owed at the border | 8,070.70 |
Check the code. HDG G60 is zinc coated and 3 ft is 914 mm wide, which reads as 7210.49.00.70, not 7211.90. Same free duty and 50% surtax.
