CUSTOMS TARIFF OF NICARAGUA. 
 
 INTRODUCTION. 
 
 TARIFF REVISION. 
 
 The new customs tariff of Nicaragua, a translation of which is 
 given in this number of the Tariff Series, was originally drawn up in 
 1915, but did not become effective until March 1, 1918. It differs 
 from the earlier tariffs in that most of the duties are based upon net 
 weight or upon the value of the goods instead of the gross weight. 
 The classifications also represent an advance over the earlier form. 
 
 Prior to the adoption of the present tariff law, there were separate 
 tariffs in force on the Atlantic and the Pacific coasts of Nicaragua. 
 Duties were collected in the Pacific ports in accordance with the law 
 of December 15, 1908, while the tariff adopted November 15, 1902, 
 was followed on the Atlantic coast. This resulted in some confusion, 
 but as most imports enter through the Pacific ports the rates there 
 in force were generally the only ones to be considered. 
 
 A further source of confusion arose from the manner of paying 
 customs duties. It was originally contemplated that the duties should 
 be paid in gold or its equivalent. In practice, however, duties were 
 paid at the custom houses of the Pacific coast in the depreiiat^^d paper 
 currency at an officially fixed rate of exchange. Up to 1913 this rate 
 was arbitrarily fixed at 650 per cent, or 6^ paper pesos for each gold 
 peso specified in the tariff'. At the same time duties were being paid 
 on the Atlantic coast in silver with a reduction of 58 per cent from 
 the rates fixed by the law of 1902. 
 
 Under these old tariffs all duties were based on gross weight, and 
 in many cases the tariff classifications were not in accordance with 
 modern commercial usage. 
 
 REVISION OF MONETARY SYSTEM. 
 
 Before any thorougli revision of the tariff could be undertaken it 
 was necessary that the finances of the country be placed on a sound 
 basis. With that in view and in accordance with the "Monetary 
 Plan" arranged with certain American bankers, a decree was pro- 
 mulgated March 20, 1912, adopting as the standard unit of value the

 merce. In the great majority of casf\s the present duties have not been changed, 
 taking into consideration the difference between the gross and net weights of the 
 articles. 
 
 The tariff law which is now in force, adopted in 1899, is unsatisfactory for the 
 following reasons : 
 
 (a) The classifications of the articles are out of date and therefore are not 
 suited to present commercial conditions. 
 
 ( b ) The duties are based entirely on gross weight. 
 
 (c) In some cases there is no distinction between the different grades of an 
 article. This is especially true in regard to fabrics, the finest qualities being 
 subject to the same duties as the ordinary grades. 
 
 (d) Some rates are very high, if not prohibitive, and others are too low. 
 The following are the principal differences between the present and the 
 
 proposed tariff: 
 
 (a) The classification of the articles and their grouping having been entirely 
 changed. 
 
 ( h ) Wherever possible, the basis of duty has been changed from gross to net 
 weight. In certain cases the rates are on an ad valorem basis and in others 
 by the piece or number of pieces. In those cases w4iere the nature of an article 
 or its packing requires it, gross weight Is continued as the basis for levying 
 duty. In many Instances, especially In the case of textiles and chemical 
 products, an alternative ad valorem duty has been given, In addition to a 
 specific rate based on net weight. 
 
 (c) The classification and system of levying duties on textiles, clothing, 
 and manufactured articles have been totally changed. Under the present tariff 
 the duty is based on gross weight. Under the new tariff the rate of duty is 
 determined according to thread count (I. e., the number of threads, as (deter- 
 mined by a thread counter, which are contained In a square of the fabric, 
 6 millimeters to the side) , and Is based on net weight. Although at first this sys- 
 tem appears complicated, it is in reality simple, and will result in equalizing 
 the duties on articles of clothing and textiles not specified In the present tariff. 
 The duties on articles of cotton, linen, and wool are not Increased, but those on 
 articles of silk are to be slightly higher. 
 
 id) The classification of drugs and chemicals and pharmaceutical products 
 has been radically changed, and the duties on such articles the Importation of 
 which should be encouraged In the Interest of public health have been con- 
 siderably reduced. 
 
 (e) The system of levying duties on beverages, cigars, and cigarettes has 
 been changed. In place of a duty based on gross weight according to the 
 alcoholic contents of liquors and wines the new tariff proposes a fixed rate 
 per liter. These rates have been established with a view to producing the same 
 revenues as those derived from the present schedule, except that In the case of 
 champagne the duties have been Increased. The duty on beer Is to be levied 
 by the bottle, but Is intended to produce the same amount of revenue. The 
 rate on mineral waters has been considerably lowered. The rate on cigars and 
 cigarettes has been changed, an advalorem rate being provided for so as to 
 differentiate between the various grades. The customs receipts are to be the 
 same, but their distribution will be more equitable. 
 
 (f) In changing the basis for duty from gross to net weight It Is necessary to 
 Impose a higher rate In order that the same amount of revenue may be obtained. 
 In fixing the new rates the schedule of tare allowances prescribed by the Ger- 
 man customs tariff has been used, after verification by means of Nlcaraguan im- 
 port statistics. The tare allowance varies, of course, for different classes of

 INTRODUCTION.

 the Philippine Ishinds, the United States, and (Jermany, have been freely con- 
 sulted, especially those which have been promulgated during the last 10 years, 
 both for modern classifications and for the purpose of comparing the duties. 
 
 The proposed new tariff law will provitle Nicaragua with a completely mod- 
 em tariff system, placing her on a level with those nations whose tariff 
 legislation is in harmony with present commercial conditions. 
 
 In its final form the tariff differs from that submitted in 1916 only 
 in a few unimportant details made necessary by changes that had 
 occurred in the meantime. Reductions were made in the rates of duty 
 on a few classes of goods, while the rates on perfumes and toilet 
 waters and sweetmeats were increased. 
 
 On the whole, the new rates are somewhat higher than those for- 
 merly in force, and a slight increase in revenue is anticipated. The 
 arrangement of the tariff, however, is such as to encourage importa- 
 tion, and the higher rates of duty will affect mostly articles of luxury 
 and not those of general consumption. 
 
 The index following the tariff schedule is not an integral part of 
 the tariff law, but it will often be of assistance in determining doubt- 
 ful classifications. 
 
 CUSTOMS SURTAX. 
 
 The authorization for increasing the duties 33J per cent, contained 
 in the law of November 11, 1913, was reenacted in slightly different 
 form on July 7, 1916. This law was not put into operation, however, 
 and on December 3, 1917, another law was passed imposing a surtax of 
 12i per cent on all import duties. This was to have gone into effect 
 January 1, 1918, but it was deferred for three months and became 
 operative on March 1, 1918, at the same time as the new tariff. The 
 proceeds from this surtax are intended for the conversion of the in- 
 ternal debt, and, although payable at the same time as the import 
 duties, are kept separate and distinct from the regular customs re- 
 ceipts, which are in part pledged for the payment of other obligations. 
 
 COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH FRANCE. 
 
 By the commercial treaty between France and Nicaragua, signed 
 January 27, 1902, certain French products are entitled to admission 
 in Nicaragua at a reduction of 25 per cent from the regular duties. 
 Under the most- favored-nation clause in the treaties with Great 
 Britain and Germany the same reductions were granted on goods 
 from those countries, while a decree of August 23, 1911, extends these 
 special tariff rates to the United States. A complete list of the ar- 
 ticles admitted at a reduction of 25 per cent from the usual rates when 
 accompanied by a certificate of origin will be found on page 51 of 
 Tariff Series No. 24 (Consular Regulations of Foreign Countries- 
 Canada and Latin America).

 Nicaragua was the first country to adopt the standard form of 
 uniform consular invoice recoiiunended at the Fourth International 
 Conference of American States held at Buenos Aires in 1910. This 
 form together with an outline of the consular regulations and fees 
 will be found in Tariff Series No. 24 (Consular Regulations of For- 
 eign Countries — Canada and Latin America), to which reference 
 has already been made. 
 
 TEMPORARY FREE ADMISSION. 
 
 The conditions under which travelers' samples are admitted in 
 Nicaragua temporarily free of duty under bond are outlined in 
 Tariff Series No. 35 (Commercial Travelers in Latin America). 
 
 Boxes, barrels, and other receptacles imported for use as con- 
 tainers of national products are granted a refund of 75 per cent of 
 the duties paid if reexported within six months. 
 
 Cinematograph films imported temporarily for exhibition pur- 
 poses and not for sale may be admitted under bond for twice the 
 amount of duties applicable under tariff item 906. The bond is can- 
 celed upon reexportation of the films within six months.

 TARIFF LAW ON IMPORTATIONS. 
 
 ARTICLE 1 Customs duties shall be paid upon all articles, goods, and merchaa- 
 dise imported from foreign countries into Nicaragua as prescribed by the 
 following tnriff. "^ 
 
 Art. 2. The following rules, and the rules and notes elsewhere stated in 
 this law, shall be observed in the construction and application of this tariff: 
 
 GENERAL RULES. 
 
 TREATMENT OF FABRICS. 
 
 Rule 1. Numher of threads ami mannrr of d etc rminwu. -By the number 
 of threads in a fabric shall be meant the total number of all threads con- 
 tamed in the warp and weft thereof in a square of 6 millimeters. The warp 
 is the threads which lie longitudinally in a fabric, whether they form the 
 foundation thereof or have been added thereto. The weft Is the threads which 
 cross the warp, whether or not from selvage to selvage. To determine the 
 number of threads in a fabric and the proportion thereof sulgect to the highest 
 rate of duty, a thread counter shall be used, each side being 6 millimeters 
 
 In fabrics woven wholly or in part with twisted, double, or multiple yarns 
 each strand of such yarn shall be counte<l as one thread In determining the 
 thread count. ^ 
 
 Should a fabric be more closely woven in some parts than in others the 
 number of threads in the most closely woven part and in the most looselv 
 woven part of the body of the fabric shall be ascertained, and the average 
 number of threads resulting shall serve as the basis for levying duty 
 
 Threads shall be counted on the finished side of the fabric if the nature 
 thereof permits; otherwise, on the reverse side. If necessary to ascertain the 
 number of threads, the nap shall be removed or a sufficient part of the fabric 
 unraveled. 
 
 Should this be impossible without damaging a made-up article, the fabric 
 shall be subject to the highest rate of duty applicable in the group to which it 
 belongs, and if the fabric be mixed it shall be dutiable at the rate applicable 
 to the most highly taxed component material in the exterior of the article

 or yarns (of one strand) of the weft are carried alternately over nnd umier 
 each warp thread, forming right angles throughout the piece, and in which 
 the threads or yarns (of one strand) of the warp are carried alternately over 
 and under each weft thread, forming right angles throughout the piece, shall 
 be considered as plain woven. 
 
 When the weaving does not correspond to the process described above, the 
 fabric shall not be considered plain woven for the purposes of this tariff. 
 
 Rule 8. Weight of fabrics per 100 square meters. — In determining the weight 
 of any fabric per 100 square meters, for the purpose of classification, the 
 calculation shall be based upon a sufficient quantity of the fabric itself, ex- 
 clusive of boards, paper, labels, tags, strings, tickets, embroidery, trimming, or
