Analysis

HTS 5402.49.11 covers colored multifilament, of modacrylic, untwisted or with a twist of less than 5 turns per meter, measuring not less than 22 decitex per filament, certified by… under heading 5402 (synthetic filament yarn (other than sewing thread), not put up for retail sale, including…).

Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 8.8%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 5402.52.90 (of polyesters: other (606)), at 8.8%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 8.8 percentage points.

Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 50% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 50% duty.

Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 11% of the 123 tariff lines in chapter 54. Duty-free at the general rate does not rule out additional duties under Chapter 99, such as Section 301 or Section 232 measures, which depend on the country of origin.
