This legislation, known as the Haiti Economic Lift Program Extension Act, aims to significantly extend and modify duty-free trade benefits for imports from Haiti under the Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act (CBERA). A primary provision extends the termination date for these special rules, ensuring duty-free treatment remains in effect until December 31, 2028 . The bill also adjusts specific rules concerning apparel articles, including updating the "applicable percentage" for preferential treatment to 60 percent or more and revising quantitative limitations for apparel imports. Furthermore, it mandates the restoration of eligibility for certain articles that previously qualified for preferential treatment under CBERA but became ineligible due to revisions in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule after December 20, 2006. Crucially, the Act includes a provision for retroactive application , allowing for the liquidation or reliquidation of entries of Haitian articles made between September 30, 2025, and the bill's enactment date. This ensures that qualifying imports during this period receive the extended duty-free treatment, with requests for such adjustments to be filed within 180 days of enactment.
