Peel of citrus fruit or melons (including watermelons), fresh, frozen, dried or provisionally preserved in brine, in sulfur water or in other preservative solutions
Analysis
Subheading 0814.00 covers peel of citrus fruit or melons (including watermelons), fresh, frozen, dried or provisionally preserved in brine, in sulfur water or in other preservative…, within heading 0814. 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.
Every one of its 3 tariff lines is duty-free at the general rate, so classification within the subheading affects statistics and Chapter 99 measures rather than the base duty.
The US splits it as follows: 0814.00.10 for peel of citrus fruit or melons (including watermelons), fresh… (duty-free), 0814.00.40 for peel of citrus fruit or melons (including watermelons), fresh… (1.6¢/kg) and 0814.00.80 for peel of citrus fruit or melons (including watermelons), fresh… (1.6¢/kg).
2 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.
