5902.90.00

Tire cord fabric of high tenacity yarn of nylon or other poly- amides, polyesters or viscose rayon: other (229)

Analysis

HTS 5902.90.00 covers tire cord fabric of high tenacity yarn of nylon or other poly- amides, polyesters or viscose rayon: other (229) under heading 5902 (tire cord fabric of high tenacity yarn of nylon or other poly- amides, polyesters or…).

Within this group the rate runs from 5.8% to 5.8%. Compared with 5902.20.00 (of polyesters (229)), which pays 5.8%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 5.8 percentage points.

The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 37% of the 59 tariff lines in chapter 59, 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.

Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 25% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 25% duty.

The other lines in the same group are 5902.10.00 (of nylon or other polyamides (229), 5.8%) and 5902.20.00 (of polyesters (229), 5.8%).
