Review path
Turn broad import risk into a smaller review queue tied to product and origin scope.
- 1Identify the risk signalStart with the source record, affected product, origin, authority, case, date, and likely operational question.
- 2Review the trade file contextKeep product, origin, HTS, authority, case, supplier, and keyword terms together when the same risk keeps appearing.
- 3Review matched exposureUse Paid review when a matched risk needs ranked review, memo context, full tool output, or source-backed export.
Build import risk scopeWhy it matters
Import risk does not live in one database. It moves across tariffs, trade remedies, rulings, hearings, notices, and internal product scope.
How Traverse frames it
Traverse keeps public source detection open and routes repeat import-risk questions into source-backed Paid review when the work repeats.
Common questions
What import teams usually need to answer.
What is import risk review?
Import risk review connects product, origin, HTS, authority, case, deadline, ruling, tariff, and source-record signals that can affect import decisions.
Why does import risk span multiple source families?
A single product exposure can move through tariffs, trade remedies, rulings, hearings, notices, investigations, and internal sourcing decisions.
When should broad import risk become source-backed Paid review?
Review the risk when a product, origin, supplier, HTS line, authority, case, or deadline is likely to recur in review work.

- 3Separate broad policy noise from matched operating exposure.
