CBP Reminds Trade of Coming ATPA/ATPDEA, GSP Expirations

The Generalized Systems of Preferences (GSP) and Andean trade preference programs (ATPA/ATPDEA) are set to expire July 31, CBP said in messages posted on the website. "CBP has no information as to whether or not these preference programs will be renewed, and if they are renewed, whether there will be a lapse period, or whether there will be a retroactive clause providing for a refund of claims made during such a period," it said. "To receive the most timely information, you should consult the trade press, your business contacts and the Federal Register preview site."
