4910.00.60

Analysis

HTS 4910.00.60 covers calendars of any kind, printed, including calendar blocks: other under heading 4910 (calendars of any kind, printed, including calendar blocks).

Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 35% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 35% duty.

The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 100% of the 29 tariff lines in chapter 49, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.

The other lines in the same group are 4910.00.20 (not over 0.51 mm in thickness, duty-free) and 4910.00.40 (over 0.51 mm in thickness, duty-free).

Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 323111 (Commercial Printing (except Screen and Books)), an industry of 15,140 US establishments employing 280,276 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.

All 2 neighbouring lines carry the same duty-free rate, so a borderline choice between them changes the statistics reported, not the duty paid.
