Review note, as released

Parsed by @origin/rulebook-ingest (Annex 4-B adapter); awaiting licensed review. Effective date not stated per provision on the page; the loader sets it from the reviewer’s explicit --effective-from decision (D-91), never a default. Expanded from range 55.01-55.08 (OPEN-14). Chapter note: Note 1: The textile and apparel rules are read in conjunction with Chapter 6 (Textile and Apparel Goods). For the purposes of these rules, the term “wholly” means that the good is made entirely or solely of the named material. Chapter note: Note 2: A good classified in Chapter 50 through 63 shall be considered originating, notwithstanding the origin of the following materials, provided that the good otherwise meets the applicable product specific rule: (a) rayon filament, other than lyocell or acetate, of heading 54.03 or 54.05, or (b) rayon fiber, other than lyocell or acetate, of heading 55.02, 55.04, or 55.07. Edition HS2022 and effective date 2020-07-01 set by FSRC at load (D-91; OPEN-06: the Annex is written against HS 2012 nomenclature; transposition not applied). Approved in bulk on the owner's instruction (FSRC owner (user 480c01a9-b5b3-4a3e-a5d0-223e73975b24), 2026-11-10; D-73).

Edition of the Harmonized System: the product-specific rules of CUSMA Annex 4-B were written against the 2012 edition (HS 2012). This release applies them to codes of today’s tariffs, which follow the 2022 edition (HS 2022), without transposing them (open question OPEN-06). Where a code was created, split or renumbered after 2012, check the rule against the official text.
