19 U.S.C. § 2483 — Definitions

For purposes of this chapter— (1) The term “duty” includes the rate and form of any import duty, including but not limited to tariff-rate quotas. (2) The term “other import restriction” includes a limitation, prohibition, charge, or exaction other than duty, imposed on importation or imposed for the regulation of importation. The term does not include any orderly marketing agreement. (3) The term “ad valorem” includes ad valorem equivalent. Whenever any limitation on the amount by which or to which any rate of duty may be decreased or increased pursuant to a trade agreement is expressed in terms of an ad valorem percentage, the ad valorem amount taken into account for purposes of such limitation shall be determined by the President on the basis of the value of imports of the articles concerned during the most recent representative period. (4) The term “ad valorem equivalent” means the ad valorem equivalent of a specific rate or, in the case of a combination of rates including a specific rate, the sum of the ad valorem equivalent of the specific rate and of the ad valorem rate. The ad valorem equivalent shall be determined by the President on the basis of the value of imports of the article concerned during the most recent representative period. In determining the value of imports, the President shall utilize, to the maximum extent practicable, the standards of valuation contained in section 1401a or 1402 11 See References in Text note below. of this title (as in effect before the effective date of the amendments made by title II of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979) or in [section 1401a of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title19-section1401a&num=0&edition=prelim) (as in effect on the effective date of such title II amendments)

On January 1, 1995, Austria, Finland, and Sweden acceded to the European Communities (EC), and the EC customs union of 12 member countries (‘‘EC-12’’) was enlarged to a customs union of 15 member countries (‘‘EC-15’’). At that time, the EC-12, Austria, Finland, and Sweden withdrew their tariff schedules under the World Trade Organization and applied the common ex- ternal tariff of the EC-12 to imports into the EC-15. The United States and the EC then entered into negotia- tions under Article XXIV:6 and Article XXVIII of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 to com- pensate the United States for the resulting increase in some tariffs on U.S. exports to Austria, Finland, and Sweden. 2. On July 22, 1996, the United States and the EC signed an agreement concluding the negotiations on compensation. To recognize the membership of Austria, Finland, and Sweden in the EC-15, the tariff-rate quota (TRQ) allocations for cheeses from these countries will become part of the total TRQ allocations for cheeses from the EC-15, but will be reserved for use by these countries through 1997. 3.
