Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 240 / Friday, December 17, 2021 / Notices
Presidential Proc. No. 8114, 72 FR
13655 (March 22, 2007), and No. 8596,
75 FR 68153 (November 4, 2010).
Background: Section 213A(b)(1)(B) of
CBERA, as amended (19 U.S.C.
2703a(b)(1)(B)), outlines the
requirements for certain apparel articles
imported directly from Haiti to qualify
for duty-free treatment under a ‘‘valueadded’’ provision. In order to qualify for
duty-free treatment, apparel articles
must be wholly assembled, or knit-toshape, 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
beneficiary countries, as described in
CBERA, as amended, or any
combination thereof, plus the direct
costs of processing operations
performed in Haiti or one or more
beneficiary countries, as described in
CBERA, as amended, or any
combination thereof, is not less than an
applicable percentage of the declared
customs value of such apparel articles.
Pursuant to CBERA, as amended, the
applicable percentage for the period
December 20, 2021 through December
19, 2022 is 60 percent.
For every twelve-month period
following the effective date of CBERA,
as amended, duty-free treatment under
the value-added provision is subject to
a quantitative limitation. CBERA, as
amended, provides that the quantitative
limitation will be recalculated for each
subsequent 12-month period. Section
213A(b)(1)(C) of CBERA, as amended
(19 U.S.C. 2703a(b)(1)(C)), requires that,
for the twelve-month period beginning
on December 20, 2021, the quantitative
limitation for qualifying apparel
imported from Haiti under the valueadded provision 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. The aggregate square meters
equivalent of all apparel articles
imported into the United States is
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.
For purposes of this notice, the most
recent 12-month period for which data
are available as of December 20, 2021 is
the 12-month period ending on October
31, 2021.
Therefore, for the one-year period
beginning on December 20, 2021 and
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:39 Dec 16, 2021
Jkt 256001
extending through December 19, 2022,
the quantity of imports eligible for
preferential treatment under the valueadded provision is 367,770,223 square
meters equivalent. Apparel articles
entered in excess of these quantities will
be subject to otherwise applicable
tariffs.
Paul E. Morris,
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Textiles, Consumer Goods, and Materials.
