Description
Trade relief for poor countries sits at the center of Public Law 112-40, passed by the 112th Congress in 2011. The act extends the Generalized System of Preferences, a program in the Trade Act of 1974. That program lets some goods enter the United States with low or no duties.
Section 1 moves the program's end date from December 31, 2010, to July 31, 2013. The change takes effect for goods entered on or after the fifteenth day after the act passed. Goods entered in the gap can still get the old treatment. Their entries are settled again as if they had come in on that fifteenth day.
