Many SKUs, one container
A consolidated shipment can carry dozens of brands and hundreds of SKUs, each needing its own code, value and paperwork before anything clears.
K-beauty imports
K-beauty import operations, launching Q1 2027
Senda already works the Korea–US lane K-beauty ships on: duty estimates from the full US tariff schedule, a document workspace where your reviewer has the final say, and Korea Customs lookups beside the shipment. Complete chapter 33 classification arrives next, and in Q1 2027 Senda adds the layer built for cosmetics: MoCRA readiness and cosmetics document types.
The K-beauty layer launches Q1 2027, and waitlist members hear first. Korea Customs lookups are on the Operations plan today.
The problem
What this usually looks like today.
MoCRA questions land on the importer
US retailers and marketplaces ask about facility registrations, product listings and responsible persons — and the answers live in supplier email threads.
Formulation decides the code
Cosmetics classification turns on details — what a product is, how it is put up for retail — and a near-identical SKU can land on a different subheading and a different duty.
In Senda
How the work gets done instead.
- 1
Estimate US duty on every SKU
Duty estimates come from the full US tariff schedule — every chapter, cosmetics included — naming the revision used and keeping the General, Special and Column 2 rates apart.
- 2
Keep the paperwork on the shipment
Invoices, packing lists, ingredient documents and certificates are read on upload and stored with version history, each value pointing to its page and place, with your reviewer's final say.
- 3
Check Korea-side clearance in the same record
Korea Customs clearance progress is queried when you ask, read-only, from the same workspace — so the team watching a consolidation in Busan sees the same record the buyer sees.
- 4
Classify from the schedule, honestly
HS suggestions only ever come from real US subheadings, with an explicit “cannot confidently classify” when the evidence is weak — a starting point for your broker, strongest today in wood, pulp, paper and steel.
Launching Q1 2027
The K-beauty layer.
Built on the same record your shipments already live in, for the paperwork and documents that are specific to cosmetics.
MoCRA readiness workspace
Facility registration and product listing paperwork organized by brand and supplier, with the gaps visible before a shipment books. Senda keeps the paperwork; filings stay with you and your advisors.
Cosmetics document types
Ingredient lists, certificates of analysis and label files read as typed documents — every value with its page and box, and your reviewer's final say.
Join the waitlist to hear when the Q1 2027 launch ships.
Where it stops
What it will not do.
Worth knowing before you book anything.
- Senda files nothing with the FDA, Korea Customs or any other authority, is not a customs broker, and nothing on this page is legal advice.
- Duty figures are estimates to confirm with your licensed customs broker.
- Until the K-beauty layer launches in Q1 2027, ingredient lists and certificates are stored with the shipment as general documents, and MoCRA paperwork is kept outside Senda.
Questions
What people ask us.
What can a K-beauty importer use today?
Orders, shipments and containers in one record; documents read on upload with your reviewer's final say; US duty estimates from the full tariff schedule; and Korea Customs clearance lookups on the Operations plan. Cosmetics move through it the way any cargo does.
What arrives before Q1 2027?
The broker handoff and the paperwork checks, being built now: duty stacked on the shipment, with Section 301, 232 and AD/CVD line by line and each rate's source named; a broker packet — the shipment's documents and a cover sheet of what is missing, in one download your broker files from; ISF readiness, showing which importer elements you hold and warning before the filing is due; a check that the invoice, packing list and B/L agree; and complete HS coverage of chapter 33, so suggestions span every skincare, make-up and toiletries subheading. Waitlist members hear as each one ships.
What does the Q1 2027 launch add?
The MoCRA readiness workspace and cosmetics document types for the document reader. Waitlist members hear first as each one ships.
Will Senda file MoCRA registrations or product listings?
No. Like customs declarations and ISF filings, filings stay with you and your advisors. The MoCRA readiness workspace keeps the paperwork, its owners and its gaps in one place; it submits nothing to any authority on your behalf.
