U.S. Customs Interpretation of Textile Goods Origin Rule Based on Pre-1994 Israel Rulings

This document clarifies the Customs interpretation of section 334(b)(5) of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act, which exempted textile goods processed in Israel from the rules of origin established in sections 334(b)(1) through 334(b)(4). The exemption is based on the pre-December 8, 1994, rulings and administrative practices regarding the origin of goods from Israel, maintaining the status quo ante for goods processed in Israel.
