UNITED STATES - RULES OF ORIGIN
FOR TEXTILES AND APPAREL PRODUCTS
Report of the Panel
(Continued)
ANNEX C
19 CFR
� 102.21 Textile and apparel products.
(a) Applicability. Except for purposes of determining
whether goods originate in Israel or are the growth, product, or manufacture of
Israel, and except as otherwise provided for by statute, the provisions of this
section shall control the determination of the country of origin of imported
textile and apparel products for purposes of the Customs laws and the
administration of quantitative restrictions. The provisions of this section
shall apply to goods entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or
after 1 July 1996.
(b) Definitions. The following terms shall have the
meanings indicated when used in this section: (1) Country of origin. The
term country of origin means the country, territory, or insular possession in
which a good originates or of which a good is the growth, product, or
manufacture. (2) Fabric-making process. A fabricmaking process is
any manufacturing operation that begins with polymers, fibers, filaments
(including strips), yarns, twine, cordage, rope, or fabric strips and results in
a textile fabric.
(3) Knit to shape. The term knit to shape
applies to any good of which 50 percent or more of the exterior surface area is
formed by major parts that have been knitted or crocheted directly to the shape
used in the good, with no consideration being given to patch pockets, appliques,
or the like. Minor cutting, trimming, or sewing of those major parts will not
affect the determination of whether a good is ��knit to shape.�� (4) Major
parts. The term major parts means integral components of a good but
does not include collars, cuffs, waistbands, plackets, pockets, linings,
paddings, trim, accessories, or similar parts. (5) Textile or apparel
product. A textile or apparel product is any good classifiable in
Chapters 50 through 63, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS),
and any good classifiable under one of the following HTSUS headings or
subheadings:
3005.90; 3921.12.15; 3921.13.15;3921.90.2550; 4202.12.40-80;
4202.22.40-80; 4202.32.40-95; 4202.92.15-30; 4202.92.60-90; 6405.20.60;

9404.90.80-95; 9502.91; 9612.10.9010
(6) Wholly assembled. The term ��wholly assembled��
when used with reference to a good means that all components, of which there
must be at least two, pre-existed in essentially the same condition as found in
the finished good and were combined to form the finished good in a single
country, territory, or insular possession. Minor attachments and minor
embellishments (for example, appliques, beads, spangles, embroidery, buttons)
not appreciably affecting the identity of the good, and minor subassemblies (for
example, collars, cuffs, plackets, pockets), will not affect the status of a
good as ��wholly assembled�� in a single country, territory, or insular
possession.
(c) General rules. Subject to paragraph (d) of this
section, the country of origin of a textile or apparel product shall be
determined by sequential application of paragraphs (c)(1) through (5) of this
section and, in each case where appropriate to the specific context, by
application of the additional requirements or conditions of �� 102.12 through
102.19 of this part.
(1) The country of origin of a textile or apparel product is
the single country, territory, or insular possession in which the good was
wholly obtained or produced.
(2) Where the country of origin of a textile or apparel
product cannot be determined under paragraph (c)(1) of this section, the country
of origin of the good is the single country, territory, or insular possession in
which each foreign material incorporated in that good underwent an applicable
change in tariff classification, and/or met any other requirement, specified for
the good in paragraph (e) of this section.
(3) Where the country of origin of a textile or apparel
product cannot be determined under paragraph (c) (1) or (2) of this section:
(i) If the good was knit to shape, the country of
origin of the good is the single country, territory, or insular
possession in which the good was knit; or

6213, 6214, 6301 through 6306, and 6308, and subheadings 6209.20.5040,
6307.10, 6307.90, and 9404.90, if the good was not knit to shape and the
good was wholly assembled in a single country, territory, or insular
possession, the country of origin of the good is the country, territory,
or insular possession in which the good was wholly assembled.
(4) Where the country of origin of a textile or apparel
product cannot be determined under paragraph (c)(1), (2) or (3) of this section,
the country of origin of the good is the single country, territory, or insular
possession in which the most important assembly or manufacturing process
occurred.
(5) Where the country of origin of a textile or apparel
product cannot be determined under paragraph (c)(1), (2), (3) or (4) of this
section, the country of origin of the good is the last country, territory, or
insular possession in which an important assembly or manufacturing process
occurred.
(d) Treatment of sets. Where a good classifiable in
the HTSUS as a set includes one or more components that are textile or apparel
products and a single country of origin for all of the components of the set
cannot be determined under paragraph (c) of this section, the country of origin
of each component of the set that is a textile or apparel product shall be
determined separately under paragraph (c) of this section. (e) Specific rules
by tariff classification. (1) The following rules will apply for purposes of
determining the country of origin of a textile or apparel product under
