Analysis
Subheading 0511.99 covers other, within heading 0511. 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 5 US tariff lines below it are national.
3 of its 5 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (60%) and 2 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 3%. The median line pays duty-free.
