CBP Publishes ACE HTS to PGA Cross Reference Guide

August 26, 2015


        U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) released the Ace Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) to Partner Government Agency (PGA) Cross Reference Guide on July 31, 2015. The guide provides PGA entry information requirements for each HTS code.

        The guide displays the HTS code and HTS code description, in addition to the agency requirements associated with the code in the categories of PGA Program 1, PGA Program 2, and PGA Program 3. If there is no agency information listed under Program 2 or Program 3, then the HTS code only requires prerequisites from one agency. For example, HTS code 2208902500 requires prior notice to the FDA under PGA Program 1. With no other requirements listed, this code only entails prior notice for a single agency.

The complete reference guide can be found here.
