Analysis
HTS 5407.20.00 covers woven fabrics obtained from strip or the like (620) under heading 5407 (woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, including woven fabrics obtained from materials…).
Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 25%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 5407.92.05 (containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair), at 25%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 25 percentage points.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 81% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 81% 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.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 313210 (Broadwoven Fabric Mills), an industry of 234 US establishments employing 13,276 people. That is the industry code a US manufacturer of the same product would normally use.
