Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "China import").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., +CBP).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Always use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted (multi-word) term, you want to only include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

CBP Reports Textile IPR Seizures Statistics for FY 2017
May 16, 2018 by Tim Warren|Customs

CBP posted its fiscal year 2017 textile and apparel enforcement statistics showing that textiles and apparel seized for intellectual property rights (IPR) violations increased from 2016. The value of goods seized for IPR violations fell by about than $4 million dollars, CBP said. The agency visited 145 factories in 10 countries to verify compliance during the year, it said. The agency performed 7,600 cargo examinations and found about 6.4 percent, or 486, to be "discrepant." That percentage is about the same as in FY16. CBP remains unable to provide statistics for fraud penalties because of the use of multiple Priority Trade Issue codes, it said. "The system does not allow for multiple PTI codes and CBP is in the process of addressing this system shortcoming," it said.

CBP Releases Absolute Quota Information for Steel Mill Products
May 14, 2018 |Customs

CBP released absolute quota information with quarter year limits on May 14 and will do so typically every Monday, the agency said in a CSMS message. Importers should consult quota bulletin (QB) 18-119 for details on South Korea absolute quota categories. "[A]s of May 11, 2018, one quarterly quota category for the second quarter of 2018 is filled: 9903.80.39," CBP said in QB 118-119. That subheading is for "Blooms, billets and slabs of stainless steel and other products, provided for in subheading 7218.91.00 and 7218.99.00." Currently, absolute quotas apply only to imports of steel from South Korea, though similar quotas will eventually apply to steel and aluminum from Argentina and steel from Brazil (see 1805020037). Other countries may also eventually be subject to quotas.
