0711
Vegetables provisionally preserved, but unsuitable in that state for immediate consumption
Analysis
Heading 0711 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers vegetables provisionally preserved, but unsuitable in that state for immediate consumption. It divides into 5 six-digit subheadings and 12 eight-digit tariff lines, with 12 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 8 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 8%, applies to 0711.90.30 (other vegetables; mixtures of vegetables: capers).
1 of its 6 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (17%) and 5 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 8%. The median line pays 7.7%.
6 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.
The largest subheadings are 0711.20 (olives, 4 lines), 0711.90 (other vegetables; mixtures of vegetables, 4 lines), 0711.59 (other, 2 lines) and 0711.40 (unnamed, 1 line).
