Analysis
Subheading 0813.20 covers prunes, within heading 0813. 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 2 US tariff lines below it are national.
None of its 2 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 14% to 14% with a median of 14%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
The US splits it as follows: 0813.20.10 for soaked in brine and dried (2¢/kg) and 0813.20.20 for prunes: other (14%).
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 Dried and Dehydrated Food Manufacturing (311423). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
