       │  EXPORTERS:  POSSIBLE REBATE OF CUSTOMS DUTIES  │
       └─────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Companies that make export sales may in some cases be enti-
tled to rebates of 99% of customs duties ("duty drawback")
paid on items which were originally imported into the U.S.,
even if they were imported by someone else.  You can qualify
for the rebate, if you bought such items and re-exported
them, or, in some cases, incorporated such items into the
products you exported.  Most small exporters aren't even
aware of this "gift" that they may be entitled to. Contact
your nearest United States Customs Service office or a cus-
toms broker for assistance in filing a claim for a rebate
of such duties.  Many customs brokers will handle the red
tape in filing for such duty drawbacks for you, for a rela-
tively modest percentage of the amount of the rebate ob-
tained.

@IF141xx]------------------------------------------------------------
@IF141xx]Because your business does considerable export business, it
@IF141xx]may be entitled to substantial duty drawbacks, as described
@IF141xx]above.  If you have not previously done so, look into the
@IF141xx]possibility that you may qualify for this government subsidy
@IF141xx]for exporters.
