  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   CH2021-0150

On November 30, FAS China downloaded a list of Harmonized System (HS) codes from the General Administration of Customs of the People’s Republic of China (GACC) Single Window website that reportedly represent the scope of commodities covered by Decree 248. The list of HS codes and data cells has been updated by GACC several times over the past ten days and other changes are anticipated as GACC makes "system improvements" to the Single Window website. U.S. facilities are encouraged to review the list at its original location inside the GACC Single Window website and determine whether they need to register and/or contact GACC with questions.
