under the Haitian Hemispheric
Opportunity Through Partnership for
Encouragement Act (HOPE)
December 14, 2009.
AGENCY: Committee for the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority: The Caribbean Basin Recovery
Act (‘‘CBERA’’), as amended by the Haitian
Hemispheric Opportunity Through
Partnership for Encouragement Act of 2006
(collectively, ‘‘HOPE’’), Title V of the Tax
Relief and Health Care Act of 2006 and the
Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008
(‘‘HOPE II’’); and Presidential Proclamation
No. 8114, 72 Fed. Reg. 13655, 13659 (March
22, 2007) (‘‘Proclamation’’).
HOPE provides for duty-free
treatment for certain apparel articles
imported directly from Haiti. Section
213A (b)(1)(B) of HOPE outlines the
requirements for certain apparel articles
to qualify for duty-free treatment under
a ‘‘value-added’’ program. In order to
qualify for duty-free treatment, apparel
articles must be wholly assembled, or
knit-to-shape, in Haiti from any
combination of fabrics, fabric
components, components knit-to-shape,

and yarns, as long as the sum of the cost
or value of materials produced in Haiti
or one or more countries, as described
in HOPE, or any combination thereof,
plus the direct costs of processing
operations performed in Haiti or one or
more countries, as described in HOPE,
or any combination thereof, is not less
than an applicable percentage of the
declared customs value of such apparel
articles. For the period December 20,
2009 through December 19, 2010, the
applicable percentage is 55 percent.
For every twelve month period
following the effective date of HOPE,
duty-free treatment under the valueadded program is subject to a
quantitative limitation. HOPE provides
that the quantitative limitation will be
recalculated for each subsequent 12month period. Section 213A (b)(1)(C) of
HOPE, as amended by HOPE II, requires
that, for the twelve-month period
beginning on December 20, 2009, the
quantitative limitation for qualifying
apparel imported from Haiti under the
value-added program will be an amount
equivalent to 1.25 percent of the
aggregate square meter equivalent of all
apparel articles imported into the
United States in the most recent 12month period for which data are
available.
For purposes of this notice, the most
recent 12-month period for which data
are available as of December 20, 2009 is
the 12-month period ending on October
31, 2009. Therefore, for the one-year
period beginning on December 20, 2009
and extending through December 19,
2010, the quantity of imports eligible for
preferential treatment under the valueadded program is 284,904,116 square
meters equivalent. Apparel articles
entered in excess of these quantities will
be subject to otherwise applicable
tariffs.
These quantities are calculated using
the aggregate square meters equivalent
of all apparel articles imported into the
United States, derived from the set of
Harmonized System lines listed in the
Annex to the World Trade Organization
Agreement on Textiles and Clothing
(‘‘ATC’’), and the conversion factors for
units of measure into square meter
equivalents used by the United States in
implementing the ATC.

Chairman, Committee for the Implementation
of Textile Agreements.
