North American Free Trade AgreementSubmission of Certificates of Eligibility for Textile and Apparel Goods Under the Tariff Preference Level Provisions

Zusammenfassung

On June 20, 1994, T.D. 94-52 was published in the Federal Register (59 FR 31519) setting forth an interim amendment to Sec. 12.132 of the Customs Regulations to require submission of a Certificate of Eligibility in connection with the entry of non- originating textile and apparel goods from Canada or Mexico for which preferential tariff treatment is claimed under the tariff preference level provisions of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The interim amendment to Sec. 12.132 contained in T.D. 94-52 was adopted as a final rule without change on September 6, 1995, in T.D. 95-68 (60 FR 46334) which set forth final regulations implementing the NAFTA. This document discusses the public comments submitted in response to T.D. 94-52 and makes one clarifying change to the regulatory text.
