Design & Construction Trade Mission to Hong Kong, Taipei, and Ho Chi 
Minh City

for enhanced participation the mission has been rescheduled to March

recruitment the application deadline has been extended from July 31, 
2024, to December 31, 2024. Applications may be accepted after that 
date if space remains and scheduling constraints permit. Interested 
U.S. companies and trade associations/organizations that have not 
already submitted an application are encouraged to do so. The U.S. 
Department of Commerce will review applications and make selection 
decisions on a rolling basis in accordance with the 89 FR 51307 (June
