It is 20 pages devoted to determining the country of origin of a product. We may ask a simple question, but complex answers have been negociated in the treaty. From reading the agreement it looks like a Honda from Ohio would qualify, a PT cruiser from Mexico would not. But, if a % of a product line qualifies and a % doesn't, an overall percentage can be opted to reduce the duty on the complete line. This is not a simple yes or no answer.
Thanks for the link. Do you know if the entire document is available online? Back in July someone (possibly you) posted links to other portions of the document.
