OMB 0551-0014

Imports of raw cane sugar are subject to a tariff-rate import quota (TRQ) that is allocated on a country-by-country basis to foreign countries or areas. A U.S. certificate for quota eligibility (CQE) issued by USDA and authenticated by a certifying authority in the foreign country permits entry of raw cane sugar under the TRQ. Officers of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) verify that CQEs accompany all shipments of TRQ raw cane sugar.
