From the Oval Office to Importers: More Data from Affiliated Businesses. Lower Penalty Mitigation
In this episode of Five Questions, Five Answers, Birgit Matthiesen, David Hamill, James Kim, and Antonio J. Rivera break down the June 3, executive order, Strengthening Customs Enforcement — not a tariff, but potentially one of the year’s most consequential trade actions for US importers. They cover the order’s expanded disclosure demands, its 90-day overhaul of the US Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) penalty-mitigation framework, and CBP’s hard-edged enforcement posture — and explain why a proactive review of import processes can turn the disruption into a competitive edge in 2026. Takeaways - It is not a tariff — but Strengthening Customs Enforcement may be the year’s most consequential trade action for US importers. - Executive orders carry the full force of law, and CBP “stands ready to enforce,” now treating importing as “a privilege, not a right.” - Expect to disclose far more — foreign tax and business identifiers, affiliated partners, and supply-chain and product detail (composition, grade, size). - CBP’s mitigation framework gets a 90-day overhaul: a penalty floor of at least 50% for national-security violations, and no mitigation for repeat offenders. - Brokers face more audits and maximum penalties for weak due diligence or non-cooperation. - Reassess voluntary disclosures now — and review procurement, classification, and valuation to build resilience.

False Claims, Real Consequences: What Every Importer Needs to Know About Customs’ FCA Enforcement
In the latest episode of Five Questions, Five Answers, host Birgit Matthiesen is joined by ArentFox Schiff colleagues Jackson David Toof and Mario A. Torrico for a conversation on the False Claims Act (FCA), its origins, and its continued importance as a tool to combat fraud against the federal government. The discussion examines how US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the US Department of Justice (DOJ) are increasingly using the FCA to pursue customs fraud and trade violations, the significant business and reputational risks companies face, and the compliance missteps that commonly lead to enforcement actions. It also highlights the importance of proactive compliance strategies for managing FCA exposure. Takeaways - The FCA is a long-standing and powerful enforcement tool. - FCA enforcement by CBP and the DOJ is increasing sharply. - FCA violations pose serious financial and reputational risks for importers. - Compliance exposure most often arises from classification, valuation, and country‑of‑origin errors. - Proactive compliance programs offer both risk reduction and competitive advantage.

US Tariffs – the New Enterprise Risk
Following recent episodes that examined specific US tariff announcements, today’s discussion takes a wider view. Host Birgit Matthiesen is joined by AFS Customs and Tariff Practice Leader Antonio J.

What the Episode Covers - Defining enterprise risk in the tariff context, including fiscal exposure, legal risk, and competitive positioning. - Developing mitigation strategies and a coordinated, company-wide approach spanning procurement, operations, and marketing. - Planning for both the near term, such as current tariff mitigation options, and the long term, including supply chain and production strategy.
