Overview: The enactment of new footwear provisions for the Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act (CBTPA) on December 3, modifies CBTPA by making virtually all U.S. footwear imports from Central America and the Caribbean (including the Dominican Republic) duty-free under very flexible rules of origin that allows the use of third-country uppers. These provisions will make the region more competitive in the U.S. footwear market by equipping them with the tools and the flexibility they need to compete against Asia and the rest of the world. Footwear can now enter the United States duty-free from the region even if made with imported uppers.
