Analysis
Subheading 2710.19 covers other, within heading 2710. 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 11 US tariff lines below it are national.
None of its 11 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 5.8% to 7% with a median of 6.4%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
9 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.
Its 11 lines start with 2710.19.06 (testing under 25 degrees A.P.I.), 2710.19.11 (testing 25 degrees A.P.I. or more), 2710.19.16 (kerosene-type jet fuel) and 2710.19.24 (kerosene (except kerosene-type jet fuel): motor…); the full list is in the table below.
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Petroleum Refineries (324110). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
