USTR seeks comments for 2021 Special 301 review

On December 15, 2020, the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) published in the Federal Register a request for comments and notice of public hearing [Docket Number USTR-2020-0041] for its 2021 review to identify countries that deny adequate and effective protection of intellectual property (IP) rights or deny fair and equitable market access to US persons who rely on IP protection. Based on this review, the USTR determines which, if any, of these countries to identify as Priority Foreign Countries. USTR requests written comments that identify acts, policies, or practices that may form the basis of a country’s identification as a Priority Foreign Country or placement on the Priority Watch List or Watch List.
