Automotive

Accelerate tariff classification, origin determinations, and FTA qualifications — even with messy item descriptions, multi-layered BOMs, complex USMCA rules or origin, reciprocal tariffs, and Section 232 duties on steel, aluminum, and copper derivatives.

KYG Trade helps automotive manufacturers and suppliers manage the unique demands of global trade across drivetrains, systems, parts, and EV technologies using trade-expert-trained AI-assisted agents capable of handling high volumes and unstructured data.

Trade Compliance Is a Race Against Complexity

From subassemblies and ECUs to wiring harnesses and EV batteries, every shipment must meet exacting tariff classification and trade compliance standards. Regulations shift fast, and preferential duty programs like USMCA depend on meticulous costed BOM part-level attribute details. Manual workflows drain resources and increase the risk of costly delays, audits, penalties, or missed savings.
