USTR online portal, exclusion requests from additional customs duties on imports from China
USTR online portal, exclusion requests
The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) today released for publication in the Federal Register a notice announcing that on October 31, 2019, the USTR will open an electronic portal for U.S. stakeholders to submit requests for exclusion from the additional customs duties to be imposed on particular products classified within a tariff subheading subject to additional customs duties on imports from China under the “Section 301 action.”
In August 2019, a notice from the USTR announced additional customs duties under the Section 301 investigation of imports from China. In that notice, the USTR stated that it would establish a process for U.S. stakeholders to use in requesting an exclusion from the additional customs duties. Read TradeNewsFlash
