Analysis
Subheading 0402.29 covers other, within heading 0402. The first six digits are shared by every country that uses the Harmonized System, so this part of the code is the same in the US, UK and EU schedules; the 3 US tariff lines below it are national.
None of its 3 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 17.5% to 17.5% with a median of 17.5%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
The US splits it as follows: 0402.29.05 for described in general note 15 of the tariff schedule and entered… (17.5%), 0402.29.10 for described in additional U.S. note 10 to this chapter and entered… (17.5%) and 0402.29.50 for other: other ($1.104/kg + 14.9%).
1 of the lines carry specific or compound rates (per kilogram, per dozen and so on) rather than a percentage, so their burden depends on the unit value of the goods.
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Dry, Condensed, and Evaporated Dairy Product Manufacturing (311514). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
