Analysis

HTS 2922.50.10 covers dl-3-(3,4-Di hydroxy phenyl) alanine;N-Ethyl-N-(2-methoxy carbonyl ethyl) aniline;dl-Phenyl ephrine base; and Carbonic acid, methyl ester, diester with… under heading 2922 (oxygen-function amino-compounds).

Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 6.5%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 2922.50.13 (isoetharine hydrochloride; Isoxsuprine hydrochloride; Nylidrin…), at duty-free: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 5.8 percentage points.

Goods that qualify under GSP, the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, and 13 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 5.8%. It is also eligible under GSP, the developing-country programme, which Congress has to renew; check whether GSP is in force on the entry date.

The general duty rate is 5.8% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 29 (65th percentile of 1050 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $580 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
