U.S. considers restoring Liberia’s GSP status
The Bush administration will consider whether to re-designate Liberia as a least developed country under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program.
Liberia’s GSP eligibility was suspended on May 1, 1990, after a review by the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative determined that Liberia failed to recognize international worker rights.
Under GSP, the United States provides duty-free treatment on certain imported goods from eligible countries.
The USTR will take comments about its Liberia proposal through Jan. 13. For more information, contact the agency’s GSP Subcommittee in Washington at
