The United States Has Greatly Expanded Tariff Preferences For Clothing In Haiti.

　　美国国会最近通过法例，大幅扩大海地服装的关税优惠。虽然海地生产的服装多属低档产品，例如棉质针织套头衫、棉质T恤内衣、棉质人造纤维T恤等，但此举最终会影响全球各主要服装供应地，包括我国内地和香港在美国市场的竞争力。 

According to the law, the tariff preference for knitted and woven garments imported from Haiti will be raised from the current equivalent of 70 million square meters to 200 million square meters.

Such tariff preferences allow duty-free treatment of garments that are stitched or knitted in Haiti.

When the tariff level is equal to 52 million square meters, the increase in tariff preferences will come into effect automatically.

The legislation also includes a number of other measures, such as the tariff concessions offered to Haiti, extended to September 30, 2020, extended to the list of textiles and garments that enjoy duty-free treatment, regardless of where their inputs come from, as long as they are completely stitched or knitted in Haiti; the United States customs frontier protection Bureau is responsible for verifying that garments imported by tariff preferences are not illegally pshipped to the United States. If illegal pshipment is available, the president of the United States has the right to reduce tariff preferences; the customs border protection bureau assesses the needs of Haiti customs, assists Haiti in reconstructing port operations, and assists Haiti in solving the current customs infrastructure needs.

In 2009, Haiti was the seventeenth largest clothing supplier in the United States, accounting for 1.1% of the total volume.

China is the largest clothing supplier in the United States, accounting for 40.5% of the total.
