[top] Xerox already has authority to produce copiers/printers and certain components, xerographic bulk toner, toner cartridges and photoreceptors within Subzone 141B. The current request would add foreign-status materials/components to the scope of authority. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), additional FTZ authority would be limited to the specific foreign-status materials/components described in the
Production under FTZ procedures could exempt Xerox from customs duty payments on the foreign-status materials/components used in export production.

Customs duties also could possibly be deferred or reduced on foreign-status production equipment.
The materials/components sourced from abroad include particulate zinc stearate and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (duty rates, 4.6% and 6.5%).
