As global trade regulations evolve, tariff exposure becomes harder to predict and sourcing decisions carry greater customs implications, businesses need faster, more connected ways to understand risk before products enter the supply chain.
A.P. Moller – Maersk is helping customers navigate this new customs environment with the latest release of Maersk Trade & Tariff Studio, its AI-powered trade intelligence platform designed to support smarter customs, sourcing and compliance decisions earlier in the supply chain lifecycle.
Building on the platform’s initial launch in 2025, the enhanced release expands the platform into a more connected customs intelligence environment, linking early-stage trade planning, AI-assisted pre-entry review, customs execution, reporting and post-declaration audit support in a single workflow.
As global trade regulations continue to evolve and tariff uncertainty remains a significant challenge for importers, businesses are increasingly seeking ways to understand compliance obligations, identify cost-saving opportunities, and anticipate risks earlier in the product lifecycle. Maersk Trade & Tariff Studio addresses these challenges by combining Maersk's customs expertise with advanced AI to deliver instant, audit-ready guidance on product classification, duty impacts, and government agency requirements.
The expanded platform reflects a broader shift in how importers are approaching customs management. Rather than treating classification, entry preparation, filing visibility, and audit review as separate steps, Maersk is connecting these activities across the customs lifecycle, from early product and sourcing analysis through post-declaration review. The approach is designed to give businesses a more consistent view of trade risk, compliance requirements, duty exposure, and reporting needs before, during, and after goods move through customs.
The enhanced release is designed to help customers:
• Understand classification and duty implications earlier through AI-powered HTS guidance and supporting logic.
• Evaluate sourcing and product design decisions by modeling how materials, production locations and tariff changes may affect landed costs.
• Reduce manual effort across large product portfolios with bulk catalog classification for thousands of SKUs.
• Monitor emerging trade risks through continuous scanning of regulatory developments, tariff actions and customs rulings.
• Navigate overlapping government agency requirements, including agencies such as the FDA, EPA and other authorities.
• Strengthen audit readiness with automated document generation, compliance workflows and post-declaration review support.
The platform is accessible through a conversational AI interface that allows users to interact using natural language, upload product photos and technical documents, or submit product links to receive trade and compliance insights in seconds.
