Collection of Canadian Province of Origin Information on Customs Entry Records

요약

The Bureau of the Census (Census) intends to direct the U.S. Customs Service (Customs) to begin collecting information on Canadian Province of Origin for imports from Canada. This information would be required for all U.S. imports that originate in Canada, except for imports of softwood lumber products that already require information on Canadian Province of Manufacture. This action is taken to fulfill the requirements of the 1987 agreement between the United States and Canada under which the countries agreed to replace their requirements for reporting export data by substituting exchanged import information.
