3825
Residual products of the chemical or allied industries, not elsewhere specified or included; municipal waste; sewage sludge; other wastes specified in note 6 to this chapter
Analysis
Heading 3825 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers residual products of the chemical or allied industries, not elsewhere specified or included; municipal waste; sewage sludge; other wastes specified in note 6 to this chapter. It divides into 9 six-digit subheadings and 9 eight-digit tariff lines, with 9 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
Every one of its 9 tariff lines is duty-free at the general rate, so classification within the heading affects statistics and Chapter 99 measures rather than the base duty.
Its median rate of duty-free sits at the 12th percentile of the headings in chapter 38.
The largest subheadings are 3825.10 (unnamed, 1 line), 3825.20 (unnamed, 1 line), 3825.30 (unnamed, 1 line) and 3825.41 (unnamed, 1 line).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by All Other Basic Organic Chemical Manufacturing (325199). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
