I. Abstract
Title II, Section 203(o) of the United
States-Panama Trade Promotion
Agreement Implementation Act (the
‘‘Act’’) [Pub. L. 112–43] implements the
commercial availability provision
provided for in Article 3.25 of the
United States-Panama Trade Promotion
Agreement (the ‘‘Agreement’’). The
Agreement entered into force on
October 31, 2012. Subject to the rules of
origin in Annex 4.1 of the Agreement,
pursuant to the textile provisions of the
Agreement, fabric, yarn, and fiber
produced in Panama or the United
States and traded between the two
countries are entitled to duty-free tariff
treatment. Annex 3.25 of the Agreement
also lists specific fabrics, yarns, and
fibers that the two countries agreed are
not available in commercial quantities
in a timely manner from producers in
Panama or the United States. The items

listed in Annex 3.25 are commercially
unavailable fabrics, yarns, and fibers.
Articles containing these items are
entitled to duty-free or preferential
treatment despite containing inputs not
produced in Panama or the United
States.
The list of commercially unavailable
fabrics, yarns, and fibers may be
changed pursuant to the commercial
availability provision in Chapter 3,
Article 3.25, Paragraphs 4–6 of the
Agreement. Under this provision,
interested entities from Panama or the
United States have the right to request
that a specific fabric, yarn, or fiber be
added to, or removed from, the list of
commercially unavailable fabrics, yarns,
and fibers in Annex 3.25 of the
Agreement.
Pursuant to Chapter 3, Article 3.25,
paragraph 6 of the Agreement, which
requires that the President publish
procedures for parties to exercise the
right to make these requests, Section
203(o)(4) of the Act authorizes the
President to establish procedures to
modify the list of fabrics, yarns, or fibers
not available in commercial quantities
in a timely manner in either the United
States or Panama as set out in Annex
3.25 of the Agreement. The President
delegated the responsibility for
publishing the procedures and
administering commercial availability
requests to the Committee for the
Implementation of Textile Agreements
(‘‘CITA’’), which issues procedures and
acts on requests through the U.S.
Department of Commerce, Office of
Textiles and Apparel (‘‘OTEXA’’) (See
Proclamation No. 8894, 77 FR 66507,
November 5, 2012).
The intent of the U.S.-Panama TPA
Commercial Availability Procedures is
to foster the use of U.S. and regional
products by implementing procedures
that allow products to be placed on or
removed from a product list, on a timely
basis, and in a manner that is consistent
with normal business practice. The
procedures are intended to facilitate the
transmission of requests; allow the
market to indicate the availability of the
supply of products that are the subject
of requests; make available promptly, to
interested entities and the public,
information regarding the requests for
products and offers received for those
products; ensure wide participation by
interested entities and parties; allow for
careful review and consideration of
information provided to substantiate
requests and responses; and provide
timely public dissemination of
information used by CITA in making
commercial availability determinations.
CITA must collect certain information
about fabric, yarn, or fiber technical

textile producers to determine whether
certain fabrics, yarns, or fibers are

Panama, subject to Section 203(o) of the
Act.
II. Method of Collection
