Abstract

This document sets forth interim amendments to those provisions of the Customs Regulations that implement the trade benefits for sub-Saharan African countries contained in the African Growth and Opportunity Act (the AGOA). The interim regulatory amendments involve the textile and apparel provisions of the AGOA and in part reflect changes made to those statutory provisions by section 3108 of the Trade Act of 2002. The specific statutory changes addressed in this document involve the amendment of several provisions to clarify the status of apparel articles assembled from knit-to- shape components, the inclusion of a specific reference to apparel articles formed on seamless knitting machines, a change of the wool fiber diameter specified in one provision, and the addition of a new provision to cover additional production scenarios involving the United States and AGOA beneficiary countries. This document also includes a number of other changes to the AGOA implementing regulations to clarify a number of issues that arose after their original publication.
