Question 1

How to verify that items are not restricted for import or export?

Accepted Answer

The Zonos Item Restriction API enables users to verify if any items that are being shipped are restricted from export or import by the destination country. Items are restricted for import or export based on the regulations put in place by government agencies. Our API consumes HS Codes and country data for shipped items and will flag any prohibitions, restrictions, or observations associated with those items in the shipment.

Question 2

How to start a session and supply information about the items being sent?

Accepted Answer

To start a session, you will create a mutation with the `hsCode` and `countryOfOrigin` you have for the `items` being shipped. Shipment origin and destination are required as this will enable us to identify `EXPORT` and `IMPORT` restrictions that may apply to the shipment. You will also pass the level of restriction that you want to see in the request. Users can select from `PROHIBITION` (most severe), `RESTRICTION` (medium severity) and `OBSERVATION` (least severe). Based on this selection the API will return that severity and anything above it. If no field is passed in the request, we will default to `PROHIBITION`.

Question 3

How to interpret the response?

Accepted Answer

The results returned will change if we find restrictions based on `item` and shipment details passed in the request . In cases where matches exist, the `action` field will return the type of restriction that applies as well as each of the details about the restrictions that apply to the shipment. The `note` field in the response from the Zonos Item Restriction API is a text description of any restrictions, prohibitions, or observations associated with the shipped items. The `note` provides additional information about the restrictions not explicitly stated in other fields.
