0710.90.11

Mixtures of pea pods and water chestnuts, other than Chinese water chestnuts

Analysis

HTS 0710.90.11 covers mixtures of pea pods and water chestnuts, other than Chinese water chestnuts under heading 0710 (vegetables (uncooked or cooked by steaming or boiling in water), frozen).

Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 14.9%. Compared with 0710.80.15 (bamboo shoots and water chestnuts, other than Chinese water chestnuts), which pays duty-free, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 7.9 percentage points.

Goods that qualify under GSP, the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, and 12 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 7.9%. It is also eligible under GSP, the developing-country programme, which Congress has to renew; check whether GSP is in force on the entry date.

The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 35%, 4.4 times the general rate.

The general duty rate is 7.9% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 07 (46th percentile of 91 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $790 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
