This document sets forth interim amendments to the Customs Regulations to implement the trade benefit provisions for sub-Saharan Africa contained in Title I of the Trade and Development Act of 2000. The trade benefits under Title I, also referred to as the African Growth and Opportunity Act (the AGOA), apply to sub-Saharan African countries designated by the President and involve: The extension of duty-free treatment under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) to non-textile articles normally excluded from GSP duty-free treatment that are not import-sensitive; and the entry of specific textile and apparel articles free of duty and free of any quantitative limits. The regulatory amendments contained in this document reflect and clarify the statutory standards for preferential treatment under the AGOA and also include specific documentary, procedural and other related requirements that must be met in order to obtain that treatment. Finally, this document also includes some interim amendments to the existing Customs Regulations implementing the GSP to conform those regulations to previous amendments to the GSP statute.
