SEC. 1432. FINDINGS; PURPOSE.
(a) FINDINGS.—The Congress finds the following:
(1)(A) A substantial amount of development and
testing occurs in the United States incident to the in-
troduction and manufacture of new products for both
domestic consumption and export overseas.
(B) Testing also occurs with respect to merchan-
dise that has already been introduced into commerce
190
to insure that it continues to meet specifications and
performs as designed.
(2) The development and testing that occurs in
the United States incident to the introduction and
manufacture of new products, and with respect to
products which have already been introduced into
commerce, represents a significant industrial activity
employing highly-skilled workers in the United States.
(3)(A) Under the current laws affecting the im-
portation of merchandise, such as the provisions of
part I of title IV of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.
1401 et seq.), goods commonly referred to as ‘‘proto-
types’’, used for product development testing and
product evaluation purposes, are subject to customs
duty upon their importation into the United States
unless the prototypes qualify for duty-free treatment
under special trade programs or unless the prototypes
are entered under a temporary importation bond.
(B) In addition, the United States Customs
Service has determined that the value of prototypes is
to be included in the value of production articles if
the prototypes are the result of the same design and
development effort as the articles.
(4)(A) Assessing duty on prototypes twice, once
when the prototypes are imported and a second time
191
thereafter as part of the cost of imported production
merchandise, discourages development and testing in
the United States, and thus encourages development
and testing to occur overseas, since, in that case, duty
will only be assessed once, upon the importation of
production merchandise.
(B) Assessing duty on these prototypes twice un-
necessarily inflates the cost to businesses, thus reduc-
ing their competitiveness.
(5) Current methods for avoiding the excessive
assessment of customs duties on the importation of
prototypes, including the use of temporary importa-
tion entries and obtaining drawback, are unwieldy,
ineffective, and difficult for both importers and the
United States Customs Service to administer.
(b) PURPOSE.—The purpose of this chapter is to pro-
mote product development and testing in the United States
by permitting the importation of prototypes on a duty-free
basis.

of chapter 98 are amended by adding at the end the fol-
lowing:
‘‘6. The following provisions apply to heading 9817.85.01:
‘‘(a) For purposes of this subchapter, including heading
9817.85.01, the term ‘prototypes’ means originals or
models of articles that—
‘‘(i) are either in the preproduction, production, or
postproduction stage and are to be used exclusively for
development, testing, product evaluation, or quality
control purposes; and
‘‘(ii) in the case of originals or models of articles that are
either in the production or postproduction stage, are
associated with a design change from current produc-
tion (including a refinement, advancement, improve-
ment, development, or quality control in either the
product itself or the means for producing the product).
For purposes of clause (i), automobile racing for purse,
prize, or commercial competition shall not be consid-

sions of law and otherwise meet the definition of ‘proto-
types’ under paragraph (a).’’.

CHAPTER 3—PROHIBITION ON IMPORTA-
TION OF PRODUCTS MADE WITH DOG
OR CAT FUR
SEC. 1441. SHORT TITLE.
This chapter may be cited as the ‘‘Dog and Cat Protec-
tion Act of 2000’’.
SEC. 1442. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings:
(1) An estimated 2,000,000 dogs and cats are
slaughtered and sold annually as part of the inter-
national fur trade. Internationally, dog and cat fur
is used in a wide variety of products, including fur
coats and jackets, fur trimmed garments, hats, gloves,
decorative accessories, stuffed animals, and other toys.
(2) The United States represents one of the larg-
est markets for the sale of fur and fur products in the
world. Market demand for fur products in the United
States has led to the introduction of dog and cat fur
products into United States commerce, frequently
based on deceptive or fraudulent labeling of the prod-
ucts to disguise the true nature of the fur and mislead
United States wholesalers, retailers, and consumers.
(3) Dog and cat fur, when dyed, is not easily
distinguishable to persons who are not experts from
other furs such as fox, rabbit, coyote, wolf, and mink,
196
and synthetic materials made to resemble real fur.
Dog and cat fur is generally less expensive than other
types of fur and may be used as a substitute for more
expensive types of furs, which provides an incentive
to engage in unfair or fraudulent trade practices in
the importation, exportation, distribution, or sale of
fur products, including deceptive labeling and other
practices designed to disguise the true contents or ori-
gin of the product.
(4) Forensic texts have documented that dog and
cat fur products are being imported into the United
States subject to deceptive labels or other practices de-
signed to conceal the use of dog or cat fur in the pro-
duction of wearing apparel, toys, and other products.
(5) Publicly available evidence reflects ongoing
significant use of dogs and cats bred expressly for
their fur by foreign fur producers for manufacture
into wearing apparel, toys, and other products that
have been introduced into United States commerce.
The evidence indicates that foreign fur producers also
rely on the use of stray dogs and cats and stolen pets
for the manufacture of fur products destined for the
world and United States markets.
197
(6) The methods of housing, transporting, and
slaughtering dogs and cats for fur production are gen-
erally unregulated and inhumane.
(7) The trade of dog and cat fur products is ethi-
cally and aesthetically abhorrent to United States
citizens. Consumers in the United States have a right
to know if products offered for sale contain dog or cat
fur and to ensure that they are not unwitting partici-
pants in this gruesome trade.
(8) Persons who engage in the sale of dog or cat
fur products, including the fraudulent trade practices
identified above, gain an unfair competitive advan-
tage over persons who engage in legitimate trade in
apparel, toys, and other products, and derive an un-
fair benefit from consumers who buy their products.
(9) The imposition of a ban on the sale, manu-
facture, offer for sale, transportation, and distribution
of dog and cat fur products, regardless of their source,
is consistent with the international obligations of the
United States because it applies equally to domestic
and foreign producers and avoids any discrimination
among foreign sources of competing products. Such a
ban is also consistent with provisions of international
agreements to which the United States is a party that
expressly allow for measures designed to protect the
198
health and welfare of animals and to enjoin the use
of deceptive trade practices in international or domes-
tic commerce.
(b) PURPOSES.—The purposes of this chapter are to—
(1) prohibit imports, exports, sale, manufacture,
offer for sale, transportation, and distribution in the
United States of dog and cat fur products, in order
to ensure that United States market demand does not
provide an incentive to slaughter dogs or cats for
their fur;
(2) require accurate labeling of fur species so
that consumers in the United States can make in-
formed choices and ensure that they are not unwitting
contributors to this gruesome trade; and
(3) ensure that the customs laws of the United
States are not undermined by illicit international
traffic in dog and cat fur products.

bled condition in separate shipments due to the size
or nature of the merchandise, or

goods entering the United States; and
(ii) allowing for periodic, consolidated
filing of data not required for determina-
tions of admissibility.

determine whether physical inspections should be con-
ducted.
(3) The cost of data collection.
(4) Potential alternative sources and methodolo-
gies for collecting data, taking into account the costs
and other consequences to importers, exporters, car-
riers, and the Government of choosing alternative
sources.
(5) Recommended changes to the law, regulations
of any agency, or other measures that would improve
the efficiency of procedures and systems of the United
States Government for regulating international trade,

without compromising the effectiveness of procedures
and systems required by law.
