Analysis
HTS 3824.99.26 covers benzene, 2,4-diisocyanate-1,3,5-tris(1- methylethyl) homopolymer; 5-Fluoro-2-methyl-1-[[4-(methylsulfinyl)- phenyl]methylene]-1H-indene;Mixtures of dimethyl… under heading 3824 (prepared binders for foundry molds or cores; chemical products and preparations of the…).
Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 6.5%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 3824.99.50 (chlorinated but not otherwise halogenated), at 6.5%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 6.5 percentage points.
Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 25% of the 179 tariff lines in chapter 38. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.
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 is the industry code a US manufacturer of the same product would normally use.
The general rate of Free has not changed in any edition of the schedule since Jan 2023.
