Analysis
HTS 4301.60.30 covers of silver, black or platinum fox (including those of any fox which is a mutation, or type developed, from silver, black or platinum foxes) under heading 4301 (raw furskins (including heads, tails, paws and other pieces or cuttings, suitable for…).
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to duty-free. Compared with 4301.90.00 (heads, tails, paws and other pieces or cuttings, suitable for…), which pays duty-free, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 5.1 percentage points.
The general duty rate is 5.1% of the customs value, which is above most the rates in chapter 43 (83rd percentile of 21 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $510 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
Goods that qualify under GSP, the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, and 12 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 5.1%. 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%, 9.8 times the general rate.
