Privileged foreign quota goods keep the grant-date rate
Explain that tariff-rate quota goods admitted to a foreign trade zone in privileged foreign status are classified only at the higher non-quota duty rate in effect on the date that status was granted; a CBP Form 214 admission does not acquire quota status, and an emergency neither abandons privileged foreign status nor waives the zone retail restriction.
