Analysis

HTS 3204.90.00 covers synthetic organic coloring matter, whether or not chemically defined; preparations as specified in note 3 to this chapter based on synthetic organic coloring… under heading 3204 (synthetic organic coloring matter, whether or not chemically defined; preparations as…).

Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 6.5%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 3204.17.40 (isoindolenine red pigment; Pigment red 214, 242, 254; Pigment red 149…), at duty-free: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 5.9 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 5.9%. 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 column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 50.8%, 8.6 times the general rate.

The general duty rate is 5.9% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 32 (50th percentile of 106 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $590 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
