Goods that qualify under the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, the Israel FTA, and 9 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 10%. It is also eligible under GSP, the developing-country programme, which Congress has to renew; check whether GSP is in force on the entry date.
The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 45%, 4.5 times the general rate.
The general duty rate is 10% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 60 (55th percentile of 60 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $1,000 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 313240 (Knit Fabric Mills), an industry of 102 US establishments employing 5,228 people. That is the industry code a US manufacturer of the same product would normally use.
