Analysis
HTS 1206.00.00 covers sunflower seeds, whether or not broken under heading 1206 (sunflower seeds, whether or not broken). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 7 ten-digit suffixes, reported in kilograms.
There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 77% of the 44 tariff lines in chapter 12 that are also free. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.
The ten-digit suffixes separate for use as oil stock, for sowing, certified organic and certified organic. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.
It is the only US line under subheading 1206.00, so the six-digit code used by every Harmonized System country and the eight-digit US line describe the same goods; a foreign tariff or an exporter's invoice showing 1206.00 points straight here.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 111120 (Oilseed (except Soybean) Farming), the industry a domestic producer of these goods reports under.
