Flextronics America, LLC
(Flextronics) submitted a notification of
proposed production activity to the FTZ
Board for its facilities in Austin, Texas.
The notification conforming to the
requirements of the regulations of the
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was
received on July 24, 2020.
Flextronics already has authority to
produce automated data processing
machines within Subzone 183C. The
current request would add a finished
product and foreign status components
to the scope of authority. Pursuant to 15
CFR 400.14(b), FTZ activity would be
limited to the specific foreign-status
PO 00000
Frm 00006
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 9990

materials/components and specific
finished product described in the
submitted notification (as described
below) and subsequently authorized by
the FTZ Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt Flextronics from customs
duty payments on the foreign-status
materials/components used in export
production (estimated 90 percent of
production). On its domestic sales, for
the foreign-status materials/components
noted below and in the existing scope
of authority, Flextronics would be able
to choose the duty rates during customs
entry procedures that apply to desktop
computers (duty-free). Flextronics
would be able to avoid duty on foreignstatus 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 sheets,
plastic film and desktop computers
(duty rate ranges from duty-free to
6.5%). The request indicates that plastic
sheets and plastic film are subject to an
antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/
CVD) order if imported from certain
countries. 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 certain
materials/components are subject to
duties under Section 301 of the Trade
Act of 1974 (Section 301), depending on
the country of origin. The applicable
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
closing period for their receipt is
September 14, 2020.
A copy of the notification will be
available for public inspection in the
‘‘Reading Room’’ section of the Board’s
website, which is accessible via
www.trade.gov/ftz.
