    500 E St., SW, Washington, DC 20436

    PURPOSE AND SCOPE

    This annual report for 2018 contains a compilation of the statistical reports published every two weeks by

    the Commission on the volume, value, unit value, and import market share of imports from China that were

    subject to the provisions of the 2005 U.S.-China Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Trade in

    Textiles and Apparel (MOU). This compilation includes official import data from the U.S. Department of

    Commerce, and shows data at the 3-digit textile/apparel category level and by the Harmonized Tariff

    Schedule 10-digit statistical reporting numbers (HTS10 or HTS10 codes) in these categories. The

    Commission posts updated reports every two weeks on its website at:

    www.usitc.gov/research_and_analysis/what_we_are_working_on.htm

    The Commission prepares the reports every two weeks, as well as annual compilations in response to a

    request from the House Committee on Ways and Means received on October 14, 2008, pursuant to section

    332(g) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1332(g)). The Commission instituted investigation No. 332-501,

    Textile and Apparel Imports from China: Statistical Reports , for the purpose of preparing these reports.

    The United States International Trade Commission (www.usitc.gov) is an independent, quasijudicial federal

    agency with broad investigative responsibilities on matters of trade. The agency investigates the effects of

    dumped and subsidized imports on domestic industries and conducts global safeguard investigations. The

    Commission also adjudicates cases involving alleged infringement by imports of intellectual property rights.

    Through such proceedings, the agency helps to support a rules-based international trading system. The

    Commission also serves as a federal resource where trade data and other trade policy-related information

    are gathered and analyzed. The information and analysis are provided to the President, the Office of the

    United States Trade Representative (USTR), and Congress to facilitate the development of sound and

    informed U.S. trade policy. The Commission makes most of its information and analysis available to the

    public to promote understanding of international trade issues.

    Imports are based on general imports, customs value.

    All data are official statistics of the U.S. Department of Commerce (Census Bureau), accessible at the following website:

    TEXTILE AND APPAREL IMPORTS FROM CHINA: STATISTICAL REPORTS

    Annual Compilation 2018

    Introduction

    The annual time frame for presenting the data by HTS10 is limited as compared with category data because HTS10 codes may change from year to year as

    a result of revisions to the HTS. Typically, HTS10 codes are superseded by new HTS10 codes when there are changes to the product coverage of statistical

    breakouts or changes to the HTS. This occurs, for example, when HS revisions recommended by the World Customs Organization (WCO) are adopted by

    the United States and enacted into U.S. law by Congress. Major changes at the 4, 6, and 8 digit levels of the HTS occurred in 2007, 2012, and again in

    2017, as the result of the WCO 5-year review cycle, leading in turn to new HTS10 codes. Less-extensive changes to the HTS and HTS10 codes have

    occurred in the interim years. This report shows data only for HTS10 codes that were valid for the entire time frame of the report, in order to ensure that only

    meaningful trends are presented.

    The textile and apparel import data in this report are presented by 3-digit category numbers and combinations thereof (scroll down this sheet to view a list of

    these categories), as well as by 10-digit HTS (HTS10) codes. The HTS10 codes in each category are based on a correlation maintained by the Office of

    Textiles and Apparel, U.S. Department of Commerce. Click on the following link for this correlation:

    Textile and apparel correlation to HTS10 codes

    MOU quota HTS10 codes

    The import data presented here are only for the items that were subject to the 2005 Memorandum of Understanding. These HTS10 codes are specified in

    the document at the following link:

    Import data can be found on the data sheets that follow this sheet. Navigate to these data using the links below or the tabs at the bottom of the screen. Each

    data sheet has columns that show absolute and percentage change for the latest period as compared with the beginning period (scroll to the right if these

    columns are not visible). A "Not applicable" in the percentage change column indicates that a value cannot be calculated because the value in the beginning

    period is zero.

    Each data sheet also has a filtering feature on line 4 that can be used to isolate or sort the data. Use the filter in the index column (sort ascending option) to
