tariff nomenclature

The changes range from the introduction of the Single Administrative Document to a new worldwide tariff nomenclature and a new much enhanced customs entry processing system.

In such bill reports the Commission may identify drafting errors, suggest changes to conform product descriptions with tariff nomenclature, and estimate the revenue loss of the duty reduction or suspension.

By August 2010 working groups involving the 16 nations to study Economic Cooperation, Rules of Origin, Customs Procedures and Tariff Nomenclature had been formed.

In addition, upon request, the office prepares legislative analysis and other technical assistance on matters relating to tariffs and tariff nomenclature, including reports in the form of "bill reports" for the House Committee on Ways and Means and Senate Committee on Finance on various duty-reduction and duty-suspension bills.
