HTS 5112.30.30 covers other, mixed mainly or solely with man-made staple fibers: other (410) under heading 5112 (woven fabrics of combed wool or of combed fine animal hair).
Rates on the nearby lines range from 7% to 7%. The costliest confusion would be with 5112.30.20 (tapestry fabrics and upholstery fabrics of a weight not exceeding 140…) at 7%, a difference of 18 points on the customs value.
Goods that qualify under the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, the Israel FTA, and 9 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 25%. 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 general duty rate is 25% of the customs value, which is among the highest the rates in chapter 51 (93rd percentile of 82 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $2,500 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
The other lines in the same group are 5112.30.10 (tapestry fabrics and upholstery fabrics of a weight…, 7%) and 5112.30.20 (tapestry fabrics and upholstery fabrics of a weight not…, 7%).
