美国制造
美国制造（英语：）是贴在美国本土制造产品上的原产国标签，表明该产品「全部或几乎全部」在美国本土生产、制造和组装。这个标签由联邦贸易委员会（FTC）监管。[1]
一般来说，外国进口到美国的商品必须有原产地标签，但在美国制造的商品可以不带原产地标签销售，除非有明确要求。美国销售必须贴有原产地标签的美国制造商品，包括：汽车、纺织品、羊毛和毛皮产品。任何其他产品自愿声明含有美国原材料，都必须符合FTC的美国制造政策。[1]
A Made in USA claim can be expressed (for example, "American-made") or implied. In identifying implied claims, the Commission focuses on the overall impression of the advertising, label, or promotional material. Depending on the context, U.S. symbols or geographic references (for example, U.S. flags, outlines of U.S. maps, or references to U.S. locations of headquarters or factories) may convey a claim of U.S. origin either by themselves or in conjunction with other phrases or images.[1]
In May 1997, the FTC published its proposal that the requirement be stated as:[2]
It will not be considered a deceptive practice for a marketer to make an unqualified U.S. origin claim if, at the time it makes the claim, the marketer possesses and relies upon competent and reliable evidence that: (1) U.S. manufacturing costs constitute 75% of the manufacturing costs for the product; and (2) the product was last substantially transformed in the United States.
However, this was just a proposal and never became part of the final guidelines published in the Federal Register in 1997.[3]
