I am looking for a direct answer to the question, "if a product is made of a fabric that originated in China does the Country of Origin then become "made in the USA" after manufacturing has changed the item from a fabric to say a orthopedic pillow case?"
I know that a tariff shift will take place as far as NAFTA goes, but I thought that because the product changed from a simple fabric (made in China) to a pillow case (sewn in the US) the Counrty of Origin becomes the US because it has made a considerable transformation in to the final product it has become.
I am new to the Regulatory Arena and am somewhat confused on this issue and would appreciate any clarity to this topic.
