reimports
Brings back merchandise
Reimports are goods that return to their country of origin after being exported.
A product manufactured in Germany, shipped to the United States, then brought back to Germany is a reimport.
The term appears in trade policy and pharmaceutical pricing discussions, where reimported drugs may be cheaper than domestic versions: The bill would allow reimports of prescription medications from Canada.
