Woven fabrics of jute or of other textile bast fibers of heading 5303: unbleached

Analysis

HTS 5310.10.00 covers woven fabrics of jute or of other textile bast fibers of heading 5303: unbleached under heading 5310 (woven fabrics of jute or of other textile bast fibers of heading 5303). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 3 ten-digit suffixes, reported in square metres and kilograms.

Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 40% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 40% duty.

The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 77% of the 30 tariff lines in chapter 53, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.

The other line in the same group is 5310.90.00 (woven fabrics of jute or of other textile bast fibers of…, duty-free).

Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 313210 (Broadwoven Fabric Mills), an industry of 234 US establishments employing 13,276 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
