Analysis
HTS 6006.10.00 covers of wool or fine animal hair (414) under heading 6006 (other knitted or crocheted fabrics).
Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 10%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 6006.90.90 (other: other (899)), at duty-free: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 10 percentage points.
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 65.5%, 6.5 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.
