ITC has been deeply engaged in mitigation strategies for clients. They range from:

1. Exclusion Requests from the China tariffs. We have submitted or are in mid-stream for almost 20 such requests and have a really streamlined protocol in place.

2. Shifting production to third countries (Dominican Republic and Vietnam for example); and

3. Valuation strategies, including First Sale for Export; and duty drawback refund applications.
