Looking to maximize your international sales potential? Join the Indiana District Export Council for an interactive webinar designed to help Indiana businesses tap into the full benefits of U.S. Free Trade Agreements amidst the changing trade dynamic. For most US exports, being able to claim US origin remains key to zero tariff entry to our FTA partners.

During this one-hour session, Meredith Bond from the U.S. Department of Commerce will walk you through the powerful FTA Tariff Tool — and other free resources that makes it easier than ever to identify tariff rates and understand how your products can qualify for preferential treatment under U.S. trade agreements.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Access up-to-date tariff information for all products covered by U.S. FTAs
  • Decode product-specific rules of origin so you can determine eligibility for reduced or zero tariffs
  • Navigate data across all 97 chapters of the Harmonized System — for both agricultural and non-agricultural goods
  • Forecast future tariff changes and timelines for duty-free treatment

Whether you’re new to exporting or ready to take your trade strategy to the next level, this session will equip you with practical knowledge to reduce costs and expand your global reach.

Meredith Bond is the Director of the U.S. Commercial Service’s Omaha office, where she helps businesses across Nebraska and southwest Iowa grow through international trade. A nationwide expert on Free Trade Agreements, she supports clients and colleagues navigating global markets. Meredith holds the Certified Global Business Professional (CGBP) credential and has served as President of the Midwest International Trade Association. She earned her degree from Bucknell University and a master’s in international Affairs from American University.
