Other, including preparations of blood of any animal: frog meat
Analysis
HTS 1602.90.10 covers other, including preparations of blood of any animal: frog meat under heading 1602 (other prepared or preserved meat, meat offal, blood or insects).
Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 6.4%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 1602.90.91 (other, including preparations of blood of any animal: other), at 6.4%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 3.7 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 2.7%. 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 general duty rate is 2.7% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 16 (51st percentile of 108 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $270 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
