SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Chile: Pursuant to section 201 of the 

United States—Chile Free Trade 

Agreement Implementation Act (Pub. L. 

108–77; 19 U.S.C. 3805 note), 

Presidential Proclamation No. 7746 of 

December 30, 2003 (68 FR 75789) 

implemented the Chile FTA on behalf of 

the United States and modified the HTS 

to reflect the tariff treatment provided 

for in the Chile FTA. 

U.S. Note 12(a) to subchapter XI of 

HTS chapter 99 provides that USTR is 

required to publish annually in the 

Federal Register a determination of the 

amount of Chile’s trade surplus, by 

volume, with all sources for goods in 

Harmonized System (HS) subheadings 

1701.11, 1701.12, 1701.91, 1701.99, 

1702.20, 1702.30, 1702.40, 1702.60, 

1702.90, 1806.10, 2101.12, 2101.20, and 

2106.90, except that Chile’s imports of 

U.S. goods classified under HS 

subheadings 1702.40 and 1702.60 that 

qualify for preferential tariff treatment 

under the Chile FTA are not included in 

the calculation of Chile’s trade surplus. 

U.S. Note 12(b) to subchapter XI of 

HTS chapter 99 provides duty-free 

treatment for certain sugar and syrup 

goods and sugar-containing products of 

Chile entered under subheading 

9911.17.05 in an amount equal to the 

lesser of Chile’s trade surplus or the 

specific quantity set out in that note for 

that calendar year. 

U.S. Note 12(c) to subchapter XI of 

HTS chapter 99 provides preferential 

tariff treatment for certain sugar and 

syrup goods and sugar-containing 

products of Chile entered under 

subheading 9911.17.10 through 

9911.17.85 in an amount equal to the 

amount by which Chile’s trade surplus 

exceeds the specific quantity set out in 

that note for that calendar year. 

During calendar year (CY) 2009, the 

most recent year for which data is 

available, Chile’s imports of sugar and 

syrup goods and sugar-containing 

products described above exceeded its 

exports of those goods by 584,029 

metric tons according to data published 

by its customs authority, the Banco 

Central de Chile. Based on this data, 

USTR determines that Chile’s trade 

surplus is negative. Therefore, in 

accordance with U.S. Note 12(b) and 

U.S. Note 12(c) to subchapter XI of HTS 

chapter 99, goods of Chile are not 

eligible to enter the United States dutyfree under subheading 9911.17.05 or at 

preferential tariff rates under 

subheading 9911.17.10 through 

9911.17.85 in CY2011.

December 22, 2005 (70 FR 76651) 

implemented the Morocco FTA on 

behalf of the United States and modified 

the HTS to reflect the tariff treatment 

provided for in the Morocco FTA. 

U.S. Note 12(a) to subchapter XII of 

HTS chapter 99 provides that USTR is 

required to publish annually in the 

Federal Register a determination of the 

amount of Morocco’s trade surplus, by 

volume, with all sources for goods in HS 

subheadings 1701.11, 1701.12, 1701.91, 

1701.99, 1702.40, and 1702.60, except 

that Morocco’s imports of U.S. goods 

classified under HS subheadings 

1702.40 and 1702.60 that qualify for 

preferential tariff treatment under the 

Morocco FTA are not included in the 

calculation of Morocco’s trade surplus. 

U.S. Note 12(b) to subchapter XII of 

HTS chapter 99 provides duty-free 

treatment for certain sugar and syrup 

goods and sugar-containing products of 

Morocco entered under subheading 

9912.17.05 in an amount equal to the 

lesser of Morocco’s trade surplus or the 

specific quantity set out in that note for 

that calendar year. 

U.S. Note 12(c) to subchapter XII of 

HTS chapter 99 provides preferential 

tariff treatment for certain sugar and 

syrup goods and sugar-containing 

products of Morocco entered under 

subheading 9912.17.10 through 

9912.17.85 in an amount equal to the

and sugar-containing products 

described above exceeded its exports of 

those goods by 975,826 metric tons

determines that Morocco’s trade surplus 

is negative. Therefore, in accordance
