TARIFF RATE QUOTAS ON LAMB MEAT
PASS TO: ASSISTANT PORT DIRECTORS, NATIONAL IMPORT SPECIALIST(S),
IMPORT SPECIALISTS, CUSTOMS OFFICERS, SUCH AS INSPECTORS,
ENTRY SUPERVISORS, AND OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES SUCH AS
BROKERS AND IMPORTERS.
THIS MESSAGE IS TO ADVISE CUSTOMS IMPORT AND ENTRY SPECIALISTS AND
OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES SUCH AS BROKERS AND IMPORTERS THAT IMPORT
ENTRIES FILED FOR LAMB MEAT EXPORTED FROM NEW ZEALAND AND AUSTRALIA
OR BEFORE JULY 21, 2000, MUST BE PROCESSED NON-ABI. THE ENTRIES MUST
BE PROCESSED MANUALLY BECAUSE THE CHAPTER 99 NUMBERS ASSOCIATED WITH
THE LAMB MEAT QUOTA YEAR JULY 22, 1999, THROUGH JULY 21, 2000, WHICH
MUST BE USED FOR THESE ENTRIES, HAVE EXPIRED. IF TRANSMITTED VIA ABI
THE ENTRY WOULD REJECT FOR INVALID TARIFF NUMBER. THIS PROCESS IS
NECESSARY TO ENSURE THAT LAMB MEAT SHIPMENTS FROM NEW ZEALAND AND
AUSTRALIA EXPORTED ON OR BEFORE JULY 21, 2000, WITH A VALID EXPORT
CERTIFICATE, ARE CHARGED (COUNTED) AGAINST THE CORRECT QUOTA YEAR.
QUESTIONS FROM THE IMPORTING COMMUNITY REGARDING THIS ELECTRONIC
MESSAGE SHOULD BE REFERRED TO THE APPROPRIATE CUSTOMS PORT OF ENTRY.
THE CUSTOMS PORT OF ENTRY MAY REFER THEIR QUESTIONS VIA E-MAIL
ATTRIBUTE HQ QUOTA, OR CONTACT JOHN PIERCE AT (202) 927-5396.
