HTSUS Updated to Reflect Implementation of U.S.-Peru Trade Promotion Agreement

The United States-Peru Trade Promotion Agreement went into on February 1, 2009.

In order to implement the U.S.-Peru Trade Promotion Agreement, the U.S. International Trade Commission has updated the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).

The Rules of Origin of the U.S.-Peru Trade Promotion Agreement are found in General Note 32 (starts on page 562 of the General Notes) and the special rate of duty column of the HTSUS has been updated to indicate the letters "PE" for products from Peru eligible for the preferential duty rates.
