Expert-verified EU/Italy customs classification support. Give a plain-language product description and get the likely HS/CN tariff heading orientation, the classification reasoning/notes, and any import-restriction flags — reviewed and signed by a licensed customs professional. Use it before shipping cross-border to avoid a wrong HS code, which causes fines, seized goods and back-duties. Guidance only, NOT a legally binding Tariff Information (BTI/ITV); genuinely ambiguous cases are flagged for expert escalation. Cost: $0.50 per call, paid automatically via x402 (USDC micropayment over HTTP 402).

Expert-verified import duty and Italian import VAT for any EU HS/CN code. Returns the practitioner-verified third-country duty where available; for every other valid code it still returns the normalized/validated code, the applicable Italian import VAT rate, and a direct deep link to the official EU TARIC page — so you always get a usable answer. Use it to estimate landed cost or confirm the duty on a classified good. Duty rates change over time, so treat this as reference, not a binding ruling. Cost: $0.25 per call, paid automatically via x402 (USDC micropayment over HTTP 402). Example code: '6109100010'.

Expert-verified EU import/export restriction screening. Give a product, HS code or country and get known prohibitions, licence/authorisation requirements, sanctions exposure and dual-use flags, reviewed by a licensed customs professional. Use it to check whether goods can legally move before you ship. High-risk topics (Russia/sanctions clearance, dual-use determinations) are NEVER answered autonomously — they are flagged for mandatory expert escalation. Guidance only, not binding advice. Cost: $0.25 per call, paid automatically via x402 (USDC micropayment over HTTP 402).

Expert-verified preferential rules of origin for EU trade agreements. Give a product or an agreement and get the applicable rule of origin (e.g. tariff-shift or value-added criteria) plus how origin must be proven — EUR.1 movement certificate, statement on origin, or the REX registered-exporter system — reviewed by a licensed customs professional. Use it to determine whether goods qualify for a reduced/zero preferential duty and what documentation is required. Guidance only, not binding advice. Cost: $0.50 per call, paid automatically via x402 (USDC micropayment over HTTP 402).

Expert-verified explanation of EU special customs procedures: inward processing, outward processing, returned goods relief, and temporary admission. Returns the purpose, eligibility conditions, required documents and practical notes for the chosen regime, reviewed by a licensed customs professional. Use it to understand how to suspend or reclaim duty/VAT when goods are processed, repaired or temporarily moved across the EU border. Complex regime structuring is flagged for expert escalation. Guidance only, not binding advice. Cost: $0.25 per call, paid automatically via x402 (USDC micropayment over HTTP 402).

Ask a general EU/Italy customs question in natural language and get a practitioner-verified answer. Covers common real-world topics such as the required import-documentation checklist, duties on goods from China, transfer-of-residence duty/VAT relief, temporary admission / inward processing for repair, and Italy-San Marino trade formalities. Use it when you don't know which specialised tool fits, or for procedural 'how do I…' questions. Guidance only, not binding advice; high-risk cases are flagged for expert escalation. Cost: $0.25 per call, paid automatically via x402 (USDC micropayment over HTTP 402).
