1. E.O. 465 has, in effect removed line bovine animals (HS 02.01) and frozen beef (HS 02.02) from the minimum access volume (MAV) system by abolishing the MAV’s for said products and setting a single tariff rate for each of the said products.

2. There is no longer a need for MAV Import Certificates (MAVICs) for the said products, since the quotas or minimum access volumes have been abolished.

In view of the foregoing, all concerned are hereby informed that MAVICs are NO LONGER REQUIRED for the importation of live bovine animals, fresh or chilled beef, and frozen beef made after the date of effectivity of E.O. 465.
