Title: ●Prohibitions and Conditions for Importation of Burmese and Non-Burmese Covered Articles of Jadeite, Rubies, and Articles of Jewelry Containing Jadeite or Rubies
Abstract: This document amends the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations in title 19 of the Code of Federal Regulations (19 CFR) to implement the provisions of the Tom Lantos Block Burmese JADE (Junta's Anti-Democratic Efforts) Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-286) (the "JADE Act") and Presidential Proclamation 8294 of September 26, 2008, which includes new Additional U.S. Note 4 to Chapter 71 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). These amendments are made to implement certain provisions of the JADE Act and the Presidential Proclamation by prohibiting the importation of Burmese covered articles (jadeite, rubies and articles of jewelry containing jadeite or rubies, mined or extracted from Burma), and by setting forth conditions for the importation of non-Burmese covered articles (jadeite, rubies, and articles of jewelry containing jadeite or rubies, mined or extracted from a country other than Burma).
