U.S., Bahrain Seek to Amend FTA Rules of Origin on Combed Cotton Yarns
The U.S. and Bahrain have recently reached an agreement in principle on certain modifications to the rules of origin under their bilateral free trade agreement. These changes are the result of determinations that neither U.S. nor Bahraini producers are able to produce certain combed cotton yarns used in the production of certain home furnishings in commercial quantities in a timely manner. The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative has asked the International Trade Commission to report within five months on the probable effect of these modifications on U.S. trade under the Bahrain FTA, total U.S. trade and domestic producers of the affected articles.
Under the proposed modifications, the origin of compacted, single, ring spun cotton yarns of subheadings 5205.27aa and 5205.28bb would be disregarded in determining the origin of cotton pillow cases, other than bolster cases, and sheets, of subheadings 6302.21.90cc, 6302.31.50dd, 6302.31.90ee, cotton bed skirts of subheading 6303.91ff, cotton shams and finished throw pillow covers of subheading 6304.92gg, cotton pillow shells of subheading 6307.90.89hh, and cotton shells for quilts, eiderdowns, comforters and similar articles of subheading 6307.90.89ii.
