OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES

TRADE REPRESENTATIVE

Determination of Effective Date of U.S.-

Vietnam Bilateral Trade Agreement

AGENCY: Office of the United States

Trade Representatives.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The United States Trade

Representative (‘‘the USTR’’) has

determined that the effective date of the

‘‘Agreement between the United States

and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam

on Trade Relations’’ (‘‘the Agreement’’),

and, the grant of nondiscriminatory

tariff treatment to the products of

Vietnam is December 10, 2001. This

determination is made pursuant to the

terms of the Agreement and as required

in Presidential proclamation 7449 (66

FR 31375).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Elena Bryan, Director for India and

Indochina Affairs, Office of the United

States Trade Representative, (202) 395–

6813.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July

13, 2000, the United States and Vietnam

concluded the Agreement in accordance

with the requirements of the Trade Act

of 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2431 et

seq.) (‘‘the Trade Act’’). Section 405(c)

of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2435(c))

provides that a bilateral commercial

agreement providing nondiscriminatory

treatment to the products of a country

denied such treatment prior to the date

of enactment of the Trade Act, and a

proclamation implementing such

agreement, shall take effect only if a

joint resolution described in section

151(b)(3) of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C.

2191(b)(3)) that approves of the

Agreement is enacted into law.

President Bush signed Proclamation

7449 on June 8, 2001, and transmitted

the Agreement to Congress on that date

for its approval. In the proclamation, the

President directed the USTR to publish

notice of the effective date of the

Agreement. Congress approved the

Agreement on October 3, 2001 and the

President signed the legislation

approving the Agreement on October 16,

2001. The National Assembly of

Vietnam approved the resolution

ratifying the Agreement on November

28, 2001 and the President of Vietnam

signed the legislation on December 4,

2001.

Chapter VII, Article 8:1 of the

Agreement provides that it shall enter

into force on the date of exchange of

written notices of acceptance by the two

Governments. On December 10, 2001,

Ambassador Robert B. Zoellick, the

United States Trade Representative and

Vu Khoan, Minister of Trade of the

Socialist Republic of Vietnam,

exchanged written notices of

acceptance, thus implementing the

Agreement. Thus, in accordance with

the terms of the Agreement, the effective

date of nondiscriminatory treatment for

products of Vietnam is December 10,

2001.

Robert B. Zoellick,

United States Trade Representative.
