interpretation, section and chapter notes 

and the texts of the headings and 

subheadings) that will further the above 

goals. No proposals for changes to the 

national-level provisions (which 

include U.S. 8-digit subheadings, 

statistical annotations and rates of duty) 

will be considered by the Commission 

as a part of this review. Interested 

parties, associations and government 

agencies should submit specific 

language for proposed amendments to 

the Harmonized System together with 

appropriate descriptive comments and, 

to the extent available, trade data. 

As part of this review, the 

Commission particularly invites 

proposals concerning the following 

matters: 

• The deletion of HS headings or 

subheadings with low trade volume, 

• The identification of new products 

important in international trade, 

• The simplification of the HS, e.g., 

by the elimination of classification 

provisions which are difficult to 

administer. 

As mentioned above, no proposals for 

changes to the Explanatory Notes or 

national-level provisions (including 

Additional U.S. Notes, U.S. 8-digit 

subheadings, statistical annotations and 

rates of duty) will be considered by the 

Commission as a part of this review. 

The changes in the international HS that 

will result from this review cycle will 

not necessarily affect tariff rates for 

products imported into the United 

States; as with the first three HS review 

cycles, the USITC plans to eventually 

develop a set of proposed HTS changes 

that will align the HTS on the 

international HS changes, pursuant to 

sec. 1205 of the 1988 Act. 

This Notice is not soliciting proposals 

for changes to the HS Explanatory 

Notes. However, requests for changes to 

the existing Explanatory Notes (not 

arising from changes in the HS itself) 

may be sent by a government directly to 

the Harmonized System Committee (the 

parent committee to the RSC) at any 

time; government and private sector 

parties interested in such action 

internationally should separately 

contact the above-mentioned parties at 

the USITC or the following at the 

Bureau of Customs and Border 

Protection: Myles Harmon, Director, 

Commercial Rulings Division, 202–572–

8860 or Gail Hamil, Director, 

International Nomenclature Staff, 202–

572–8813.

proposals. All submissions should be
