Goods Made In Hong Kong Must Be Marked As Products Of China – Transition Period Extended

Share

The original requirement to mark goods from Hong Kong as products of Chinese origin as mandated by President Trump’s Executive Order 13936 from July 14, 2020 provided a transition period through September 25, 2020. CBP has extended the transition period for an additional 45 days for goods entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption through November 9, 2020 in order to allow importers sufficient time to comply with the Executive Order.   

The Customs Regulations require every article of foreign origin or its container imported into the Customs territory of the United States to be marked in a conspicuous place and in such manner as to indicate to the ultimate purchaser in the United States the English name of the country of origin of the article (19 U.S.C. §1304 and 19 CFR 134.11).
