Knitted or crocheted fabrics of a width not exceeding 30 cm, other than those of heading 6001 or 6002
Analysis
Heading 6003 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers knitted or crocheted fabrics of a width not exceeding 30 cm, other than those of heading 6001 or 6002. It divides into 5 six-digit subheadings and 10 eight-digit tariff lines, with 10 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 7.5 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 14.1%, applies to 6003.10.10 (open-work fabrics, warp knit (229)) and 6003.20.10 (open-work fabrics, warp knit (229)).
None of its 10 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 6.6% to 14.1% with a median of 11.05%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
Its median rate of 11.05% sits at the 82nd percentile of the headings in chapter 60.
The largest subheadings are 6003.10 (of wool or fine animal hair, 2 lines), 6003.20 (of cotton, 2 lines), 6003.30 (of synthetic fibers, 2 lines) and 6003.40 (of artificial fibers, 2 lines).
