Analysis
HTS 3201.90.25 covers extracts of canaigre, chestnut, curupay, divi-divi, eucalyptus, gambier, hemlock, larch, mangrove, myrobalan, oak, sumac, tara, urunday or valonia under heading 3201 (tanning extracts of vegetable origin; tannins and their salts, ethers, esters and other…).
Within this group the rate runs from 1.5% to 3.1%. Compared with 3201.90.50 (other: other), which pays 3.1%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 3.1 percentage points.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 19% of the 106 tariff lines in chapter 32, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Duty-free at the general rate does not rule out additional duties under Chapter 99, such as Section 301 or Section 232 measures, which depend on the country of origin.
The other lines in the same group are 3201.90.10 (tannic acid, containing by weight 50 percent or more of…, 1.5%) and 3201.90.50 (other: other, 3.1%).
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 325194 (Cyclic Crude, Intermediate, and Gum and Wood Chemical Manufacturing), an industry of 68 US establishments employing 5,542 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
