The Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Marketing Service is accepting comments through July 23 on a proposed rule that would decrease by 12 percent, from $0.013247/kg to $0.011662/kg, the assessments paid by importers of cotton and cotton-containing products under the Cotton Research and Promotion Order.
This rule would also amend the Import Assessment Table, which indicates the total assessment rate due for each HTSUS number subject to assessment, to reflect this change.
For more information, please contact ST&R’s textile and apparel practice leader Elise Shibles at (415) 490-1403 or via email.
