Abstract: The African Growth and
Opportunity Act (AGOA) was adopted
by the United States with the enactment
of the Trade and Development Act of
2000 (Pub. L. 106–200). The objectives
of AGOA are (1) to provide for extension
of duty-free treatment under the
Generalized System of Preferences
(GSP) to import sensitive articles
normally excluded from GSP duty
treatment, and (2) to provide for the
entry of specific textile and apparel
articles free of duty and free of any
quantitative limits from the countries of
sub-Saharan Africa.
For preferential treatment under
AGOA, the exporter is required to
prepare a certificate of origin and
provide it to the importer. The
certificate of origin includes information
such as contact information for the
importer, exporter and producer; the
basis for which preferential treatment is
claimed; and a description of the
imported merchandise. The importers
are required to have the certificate in
their possession at the time of the claim,
and to provide it to Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) upon request. The
collection of this information is
provided for in 19 CFR 10.214, 10.215,
and 10.216.
Instructions for complying with this
regulation are posted on CBP.gov Web
site at: http://www.cbp.gov/trade/
priority-issues.
Action: CBP proposes to extend the
expiration date of this information
collection without change to the
estimated burden hours or the
information collected.
Type of Review: Extension (without
change).
Affected Public: Businesses.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
210.
Estimated Number of Annual
Responses per Respondent: 107.
Estimated Number of Total Annual
Responses: 22,470.
Estimated Time per Response: 20
minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 7,640.
Dated: May 4, 2016.
