The U.S. International Trade Commission (“ITC”) is now accepting public comments on Miscellaneous Tariff Bill (“MTB”) petitions for duty suspensions and reductions that timely were filed with the agency by December 12, 2016, pursuant to the American Manufacturing Competitiveness Act of 2016. More than 3,000 MTB petitions were filed regarding articles ranging from chemicals to golf bags.
The ITC already has released interim regulations and has disseminated detailed public guidance on preparing and filing public comments. As we reported previously, the ITC also created an Internet-based MTB portal for submission of all petitions and related public comments.
