                        TITLE 19--CUSTOMS DUTIES

 

   CHAPTER I--BUREAU OF CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION, DEPARTMENT OF 

              HOMELAND SECURITY; DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY

 

PART 134_COUNTRY OF ORIGIN MARKING--Table of Contents

 

       Subpart E_Method and Location of Marking Imported Articles

 

Sec.  134.44  Location and other acceptable methods of marking.



    (a) Other acceptable methods. Except for articles described in Sec.  

134.43 of this part or the subject of a ruling by the Commissioner of 

Customs, any method of marking at any location insuring that country of 

origin will conspicuously appear on the article shall be acceptable. 

Such marking must be legible and sufficiently permanent so that it will 

remain on the article (or its container when the container and not the 

article is required to be marked) until it reaches the ultimate 

purchaser unless deliberately removed.

    (b) Articles marked with paper sticker labels. If paper sticker or 

pressure sensitive labels are used, they must be affixed in a 

conspicuous place and so securely that unless deliberately removed they 

will remain on the article while it is in storage or on display and 

until it is delivered to the ultimate purchaser.

    (c) Articles marked with tags. When tags are used, they must be 

attached in a conspicuous place and in a manner which assures that 

unless deliberately removed they will remain on the article until it 

reaches the ultimate purchaser.
