Fittings for furniture, coachwork or the like: handles and knobs
Analysis
HTS 3926.30.10 covers fittings for furniture, coachwork or the like: handles and knobs under heading 3926 (other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914).
Rates on the nearby lines range from duty-free to 6.5%. The costliest confusion would be with 3926.90.96 (casing for bicycle derailleur cables; and casing for cable or inner…) at duty-free, a difference of 6.5 points on the customs value.
The general duty rate is 6.5% of the customs value, which is above most the rates in chapter 39 (86th percentile of 236 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $650 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
Goods that qualify under GSP, the Australia FTA, the Automotive Products Trade Act, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, and 13 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 6.5%. 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. Reduced but not zero rates apply under some agreements: 3.25% for JP.
The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 57.5%, 8.8 times the general rate.
