Puddings ready for immediate consumption without further preparation
Analysis
HTS 1901.90.25 covers puddings ready for immediate consumption without further preparation under heading 1901 (malt extract; food preparations of flour, groats, meal, starch or malt extract, not…).
Rates on the nearby lines range from 6.4% to 16%. The costliest confusion would be with 1901.90.64 (described in additional U.S. note 10 to chapter 4 and entered…) at 16%, a difference of 16 points on the customs value.
There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 17% of the 59 tariff lines in chapter 19 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.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 30% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 30% duty.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 311999 (All Other Miscellaneous Food Manufacturing), an industry of 872 US establishments employing 31,860 people, the industry a domestic producer of these goods reports under.
