2914
Ketones and quinones, whether or not with other oxygen function, and their halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated, or nitrosated derivatives
Analysis
Heading 2914 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers ketones and quinones, whether or not with other oxygen function, and their halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated, or nitrosated derivatives. It divides into 16 six-digit subheadings and 35 eight-digit tariff lines, with 35 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
9 of its 35 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (26%) and 26 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 5.5%. The median line pays 4%.
The spread of 5.5 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 5.5%, applies to 2914.11.10 (derived in whole or in part from cumene) and 2914.22.10 (cyclohexanone and methylcyclohexanones…).
The largest subheadings are 2914.40 (ketone-alcohols and ketone-aldehydes, 5 lines), 2914.79 (other, 5 lines), 2914.29 (other, 4 lines) and 2914.69 (other, 4 lines).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by All Other Basic Organic Chemical Manufacturing (325199). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
