Well I can comment from a tax perspective. If you are
importing from a related company yoj might have transfer
pricing concerns.

This question is partly about import duties, if anyone has a
suggestion for a better group to post this, thanks in
advance.

This came up during a lunch discussion (politics) among
friends, I hope someone here can clarify some points.

When I buy a product in the US of which label says made in
<foreign country> , then import tax had to be paid on it,
correct? Someone suggested that if the US company opened a
factory abroad and brought the product back that would be
treated differently for tax and import purposes than if it
simply imported said product from a foreign business entity
producing the product abroad.

Thanks.
Matyas
