Recent News
Limited Trade Activity in Wool Apparel Goods Between US and Finland
Recent trade data indicates minimal activity in the export of apparel goods made from wool fabric (as described in U.S. note 16(d)) from Costa Rica to the United States for further trade with Finland. The specific category under HS Code remains underutilized within the aggregate annual quantities set by U.S. note 16(c).
