Analysis
Heading 2202 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers waters, including mineral waters and aerated waters, containing added sugar or other sweetening matter or flavored, and other non-alcoholic beverages, not including fruit, nut or vegetable juices of heading 2009. It divides into 3 six-digit subheadings and 11 eight-digit tariff lines, with 19 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
None of its 11 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 17% to 17.5% with a median of 17.5%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
Its median rate of 17.5% sits at the 97th percentile of the headings in chapter 22.
8 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.
The largest subheadings are 2202.99 (other, 9 lines), 2202.10 (unnamed, 1 line) and 2202.91 (unnamed, 1 line).
