Analysis
Subheading 5806.39 covers of other textile materials, within heading 5806. The first six digits are shared by every country that uses the Harmonized System, so this part of the code is the same in the US, UK and EU schedules; the 3 US tariff lines below it are national.
The spread of 6.6 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 6.6%, applies to 5806.39.10 (of wool or fine animal hair (414)).
1 of its 3 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (33%) and 2 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 6.6%. The median line pays 4.9%.
The US splits it as follows: 5806.39.10 for of wool or fine animal hair (414) (6.6%), 5806.39.20 for of vegetable fibers, except cotton (899) (4.9%) and 5806.39.30 for of other textile materials: other (duty-free).
