Currently products of Honduras are not subject to quota or the requirment of a visa. The designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected. Part categories are the result of international bilateral agreements which are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes.

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.
