Capabilities

Tools 8

find_schedule_b

Search the official U.S. Census Bureau Schedule B (10-digit export classification used to file Electronic Export Information) by product words or by code prefix. Returns up to 50 codes with their official description and a link to each code's page (unit of quantity, when EEI is required, HS code used abroad, top U.S. export markets).

Discovered
find_us_exporters

Find U.S. manufacturers of a product. Returns (1) registered exporters: companies with a U.S. plant that Fromerica reviewed before publishing (Pro-plan companies are listed first and marked paid_placement=true), and (2) separately, unclaimed listings of U.S. manufacturers in the same industry built from public government records (not Fromerica members, not verified, not contactable through Fromerica). Always returns the link where the buyer can post a free request for quote (no account, 0% commission); Fromerica looks for matching U.S. manufacturers.

Discovered
get_us_export_markets

Official U.S. Census Bureau statistics for one product at the HS 4-digit level: total U.S. exports, the top destination countries with year-to-date change, and the states that ship the most.

Discovered
get_us_exports_by_state

Official U.S. Census Bureau export statistics for one U.S. state or territory (origin of movement): total exports for the last full year and year to date, rank among states, and the top destination countries and products.

Discovered
get_us_tariff

Get the official U.S. import duty rates for one HTS code (general, special and column 2), its description path, the date it was last checked against the official schedule, notes for chapter 99 provisions (additional duties, expired temporary reductions), and U.S. export figures for the product when available.

Discovered
screen_restricted_party

Check a company or person name against the U.S. Consolidated Screening List (Commerce, State and Treasury: OFAC SDN, BIS Entity List and others), refreshed daily. Returns possible matches with their source list and match strength. A match is not a legal determination, and no match does not mean the party is cleared.

Discovered
search_us_tariffs

Search the official U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule (USITC, refreshed daily) by product words or by an HTS code prefix. Returns up to 20 tariff lines with their general, special and column 2 duty rates and a link to each code's page on Fromerica.

Discovered
verify_fmc_license

Check whether a company appears on the Federal Maritime Commission's list of licensed and bonded Ocean Transportation Intermediaries (ocean freight forwarders and NVOCCs), by company name or license number. Returns license number, type, location and renewal date.
