Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 38—
Spartanburg County, South Carolina;
Notification of Proposed Production
Activity; ZF Chassis Systems Duncan,
LLC, (Automotive Suspension
Systems), Duncan, South Carolina
ZF Chassis Systems Duncan, LLC (ZF
Chassis) submitted a notification of
proposed production activity to the FTZ
Board for its facility in Duncan, South
Carolina. The notification conforming to
the requirements of the regulations of
the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was
received on July 23, 2019.
ZF Chassis already has authority to
produce automotive suspension systems
within FTZ 38. The current request
would add foreign status materials/
components to the scope of authority.
Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b),
additional FTZ authority would be
limited to the specific foreign-status
materials/components described in the
submitted notification (as described
below) and subsequently authorized by
the FTZ Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt ZF Chassis from customs
duty payments on the foreign-status
materials/components used in export
production. On its domestic sales, for
the foreign-status materials/components
noted below, ZF Chassis would be able
to choose the duty rates during customs
entry procedures that apply to
automotive suspension systems (2.5%).
ZF Chassis would be able to avoid duty
on foreign-status components which
become scrap/waste. Customs duties
also could possibly be deferred or
reduced on foreign-status production
equipment.
The materials/components sourced
from abroad include: Plastic fittings for
tubes, pipes, and hoses; plastic
mounting clips; paper and paperboard
labels; iron or steel self-tapping screws;
steel threaded nuts; steel non-threaded
clips; copper non-threaded screws and
bolts; copper threaded nuts and plugs;
vacuum pipes; steel check valves; wheel
speed sensors/ABS sensors; insulated
wiring sets; plastic cable trays; steel
front axle carriers; drive axles with
differentials; steering boxes; steering
columns; steering gears; steering wheels;
angle joint assemblies for front axles;
and, level sensors (duty rate ranges from
duty-free to 8.6%). The request
indicates that certain materials/
components are subject to special duties
under Section 301 of the Trade Act of
1974 (Section 301), depending on the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
