CBP Makes Technical Changes to NAFTA Rules

CBP made "technical rectifications" to the NAFTA Uniform Regulations, following up on a 2009 agreement between the U.S, Mexico and Canada, the agency said (here). "The technical rectifications were necessitated by systemic revisions to the international" harmonized system, it said. "The technical rectifications to the NAFTA Uniform Regulations for Chapter Four and Annex 403.1 do not constitute policy or substantive changes to the NAFTA and have the sole purpose of maintaining consistency between the NAFTA Annexes and each of the signatory countries’ tariff laws."
