SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

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 

specifications and the production 

capabilities of Panamanian and U.S. 

textile producers to determine whether 

certain fabrics, yarns, or fibers are 

available in commercial quantities in a 

timely manner in the United States or 

Panama, subject to Section 203(o) of the 

Act.

Subject to the rules of origin in Annex 

4.1 of the Agreement, and pursuant to 

the textile provisions of the Agreement,
