Commodity Classification Automated Tracking System

The Commodity Classification Automated Tracking System (CCATS) is a tool used by U.S. Customs to identify and describe items being imported or exported. It helps determine the correct classification, licensing requirements, and tariffs for goods based on their characteristics. By automating this process, CCATS ensures consistent, efficient, and accurate categorization of commodities, aiding importers, exporters, and customs officials in complying with regulations and facilitating smoother trade operations.
