Harmonized System Update (HSU) 1809 was created on June 28, 2018 and contains 1,635 ABI records and 385 harmonized tariff records.

This update includes modifications made as a result of the 484 F Committee, the Committee for Statistical Annotation of Tariff Schedules. Most of these changes are effective 07/01/18. The specific, affected
codes will be included within the next revision of the USHTS, and will be posted on the USITC's website
(www.usitc.gov) when available. Until then, your client representative or I can assist with questions
about replacement records.

Changes were also made as a result of Presidential Proclamation 9466, To Implement the World Trade
Organization Declaration on the Expansion of Trade in Information Technology Products
and for Other Purposes, published July 6, 2016. The modifications made are listed in Annex B and are
effective 07/01/18.

Finally, in support of the PGA Message Set, Participating Government Agency (PGA) indicators were updated as well.

Adjustments required by the verification of the 2018 Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) are included also.

The modified records are currently available to all ABI participants and can be retrieved electronically
via the procedures indicated in the CATAIR. For further information about this process, please contact
your client representative. For all other questions regarding this message, please contact Jennifer
