Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 18—San

Proposed Production Activity; Tesla,
Inc. (Electric Passenger Vehicles and
Components), Fremont, Livermore,
and Oakland, California
Tesla, Inc. (Tesla) submitted a
notification of proposed production
activity to the FTZ Board for its
facilities in Fremont, Livermore, and
Oakland, California. The notification
PO 00000
Frm 00003
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
66651
conforming to the requirements of the
regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR
400.22) was received on November 26,
2019.
Tesla already has authority to produce
electric passenger vehicles and related
components within FTZ 18. The current
request would add nine finished
products and a foreign status material/
component to the scope of authority.
Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b),
additional FTZ authority would be
limited to the specific foreign-status
material/component and specific
finished products described in the
submitted notification (as described
below) and subsequently authorized by
the FTZ Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt Tesla from customs duty
payments on the foreign-status material/
component used in export production
(estimated at up to 50 percent of
production). On its domestic sales, for
the foreign-status materials/components
noted below and in the existing scope
of authority, Tesla would be able to
choose the duty rates during customs
entry procedures that apply to doors,
front under body shotguns, vehicle body
sides, automotive spoilers, hoods,
vehicle roof headers, lift gates, under
bodies, and quarter panels (duty rate
duty-free to 2.5%). Tesla would be able
to avoid duty on the foreign-status
component which becomes scrap/waste.
Customs duties also could possibly be
deferred or reduced on foreign-status
production equipment.
The material/component sourced
from abroad is aluminum coil (duty rate
3.0%). The request indicates that
aluminum coil is subject to an
antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/
CVD) order if imported from the
People’s Republic of China. The FTZ
Board’s regulations (15 CFR 400.14(e))
require that merchandise subject to AD/
CVD orders, or items which would be
otherwise subject to suspension of
liquidation under AD/CVD procedures
if they entered U.S. customs territory, be
admitted to the zone in privileged
foreign status (19 CFR 146.41). The
request also indicates that aluminum
coil is subject to special duties under
Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act
of 1962 (Section 232) and Section 301
of the Trade Act of 1974 (Section 301),
depending on the country of origin. The
applicable Section 232 and Section 301
decisions require subject merchandise
to be admitted to FTZs in privileged
foreign status.
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions shall be
addressed to the Board’s Executive
Secretary and sent to: ftz@trade.gov. The
