Description
Undergarments, knitted or crocheted, not elastic or rubberised, wholly or mainly of cotton, women's and girls'
wear.
Undergarments (other than briefs, drawers, panties, undershorts and the like, and panty hoses and tights), knitted or crocheted, not elastic or rubberised, wholly or mainly of continuous synthetic or artificial fibres, men's and boys' and women's and girls' wear.
The principal purpose of this sytem would be to provide the Government
of Sweden with advance information on the development of trade in
these groups.
3.
I should explain that under the Export Authorisation system
no export licence for these items will be issued unless an Export
Authorisation has previously been obtained in respect of the
consignment concerned. Export Authorisations are issued only on
production of evidence of a firm contract for the supply of the
goods in respect of which the applicant seeks such Authorisation.
4.
As you will have noted from the specimen Export Authorisation
forms, application for an Export Licence for the particular goods
in respect of which an Export Authorisation is issued must be made
before the expiry of the Export Authorisation. Export Authorisations
will be valid for a period of three months. Export Licences are
valid for only twenty eight days. The actual goods must therefore
be exported within four months from the issue of the Export
Authorisation.
5.
The Hong Kong Government will forward via the Consul-General
of Sweden fortnightly returns to the Swedish Government showing by
group, the quantities covered by Export Authorisations issued to
Hong Kong exporters.
