SUBJECT:	Inadvertent Omission of Tariff Change Rules in General Note 12(t) Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) Annotated

We have been advised by the U.S. International Trade Commission that Chapter 30 Tariff Change Rules (9) and (10) in General Note 12(t) were inadvertently left out of the printed and downloadable versions of the law.
