HS Import Watchlist API
A buyer-intent page for supply chain, sourcing, procurement, logistics, and market-intelligence teams that want public Census import records filtered by HS code, country, period, district, port, value, weight, and transport mode.

Likely Buyers
This page is only a demand test. Build starts after tracked workflow intent beats the broader market pages.
- Supply chain teams watching HS code and country import changes.
- Sourcing and procurement teams monitoring supplier-country trade-flow signals.
- Logistics and market-intelligence tools that need source-linked public trade records.
Signals To Watch
These events decide whether this workflow deserves implementation.
- Request clicks from Census import API and HS import watchlist keywords.
- Census HS import CSV sample downloads.
- Demo clicks from users comparing HS code, country, value, weight, and transport-mode fields.
Smallest Build
If this page crosses a gate, the first implementation should stay this narrow.
- Census International Trade source cache with HS code, country, period, district, port, value, weight, and transport-mode filters first.
- Monthly cached JSON and CSV exports before broad supply-chain enrichment or trade analytics.
- No customs advice, tariff classification advice, sanctions screening, duty optimization, legal advice, import compliance certification, or shipment decisioning.
