TREAS/DO RIN: 1505-AB90 Publication ID: Fall 2008 
Title: Articles Assembled Abroad: Operations Incidental to the Assembly Process 
Abstract: This document amends the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Regulations in title 19 of the Code of Federal Regulations (19 CFR part 10) in order to remove a provision that draws a distinction between preservative and decorative painting for purposes of the partial duty exemption under subheading 9802.00.80, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). The change is made to conform the CBP Regulations with the holding of a court decision in which the regulatory distinction between preservative and decorative painting was found to be invalid.
