Analysis
Heading 2922 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers oxygen-function amino-compounds. It divides into 18 six-digit subheadings and 64 eight-digit tariff lines, with 72 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 6.5 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 6.5%, applies to 2922.11.00 (monoethanolamine and its salts) and 2922.12.00 (diethanolamine and its salts).
15 of its 64 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (23%) and 49 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 6.5%. The median line pays 6.5%.
Its median rate of 6.5% sits at the 83rd percentile of the headings in chapter 29.
The largest subheadings are 2922.29 (other, 12 lines), 2922.50 (amino-alcohol-phenols, amino-acid-phenols and…, 11 lines), 2922.49 (other, 9 lines) and 2922.19 (other, 7 lines).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by All Other Basic Organic Chemical Manufacturing (325199), Cyclic Crude, Intermediate, and Gum and Wood Chemical Manufacturing (325194) and Pharmaceutical Preparation Manufacturing (325412). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
