The document details the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines regarding "Made in USA" claims, ensuring fair marketplace practices against misleading representations of U.S. origin products. It establishes that for an unqualified claim, products must be "all or virtually all" made in the U.S., including all significant parts and processing. Manufacturers must substantiate such claims with reliable evidence. The FTC policy covers claims made in advertising, labeling, and promotional materials, and addresses both express and implied claims concerning U.S. content. It differentiates between qualified claims, which describe the extent of domestic content, and unqualified claims. Additionally, it outlines the responsibilities of the U.S. Customs Service in determining the country of origin, emphasizing the importance of clear consumer communication regarding product origins. Violations may be reported to the FTC, and the document clarifies various statutes governing labeling requirements in specific industries such as textiles and automobiles. The guidance aims to prevent consumer deception and ensure compliance in advertising and labeling practices. This information is relevant for businesses engaged in federal and local government requests for proposals (RFPs) and grants requiring adherence to origin claims in economic activities.
