OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES 

TRADE REPRESENTATIVE 

Notice of Effective Date for Goods of 

Mexico for Certain Modifications of the 

NAFTA Rules of Origin 

AGENCY: Office of the United States 

Trade Representative. 

ACTION: Notice of effective date. 

SUMMARY: In Proclamation 8111 of 

February 28, 2007, the President 

modified the rules of origin for certain 

goods of Mexico under the North 

American Free Trade Agreement (the 

‘‘NAFTA’’) incorporated in the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States (the ‘‘HTS’’). The 

proclamation stated that the 

modifications would be effective on the 

date to be announced in the Federal 

Register by the United States Trade 

Representative (the ‘‘USTR’’) and would 

apply to goods of Mexico that are 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse 

for consumption, on or after the date 

indicated in the proclamation. The 

purpose of this notice is to announce 

that the effective date for the 

modifications is July 30, 2007. The 

changes were printed in the Federal 

Register of March 6, 2007 (72 FR 

10028).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Presidential Proclamation 6641 of 

December 15, 1993 implemented the 

North American Free Trade Agreement 

(the ‘‘NAFTA’’) with respect to the 

United States and, pursuant to the North 

American Free Trade Agreement 

Implementation Act (Pub. L. 103–182) 

(the ‘‘NAFTA Implementation Act’’), 

incorporated in the Harmonized Tariff 

Schedule of the United States (the 

‘‘HTS’’) the tariff modifications and 

rules of origin necessary or appropriate 

to carry out the NAFTA. Section 202 of 

the NAFTA Implementation Act (19 

U.S.C. 3332) provides rules for 

determining whether goods imported 

into the United States originate in the 

territory of a NAFTA party and thus are 

eligible for the tariff and other treatment 

contemplated under the NAFTA. 

Section 202(q) of the NAFTA 

Implementation Act (19 U.S.C. 3332(q)) 

authorizes the President to proclaim, as 

a part of the HTS, the rules of origin set 

out in the NAFTA and to proclaim 

modifications to such previously 

proclaimed rules of origin, subject to the 

consultation and layover requirements 

of section 103(a) of the NAFTA 

Implementation Act (19 U.S.C. 3313(a)). 

The President determined that the 

modifications to the HTS contained in 

Proclamation 8811 pursuant to sections 

201 and 202 of the NAFTA 

Implementation Act were appropriate 

and proclaimed such changes with 

respect to goods of Mexico entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse for 

consumption, on or after the date 

indicated in the Annex to that 

Proclamation. The President decided 

that the effective date of the 

modifications shall be announced by the 

United States Trade Representative 

(USTR). 

On March 15, 2007, the government of 

Mexico obtained the necessary 

authorization to implement the rule of 

origin changes with respect to goods of 

the United States. Subsequently, 

officials from the government of Mexico 

and the government of the United States 

agreed to implement these changes with 

respect to each other’s eligible goods, 

effective July 30, 2007.
