6104.19.10
Containing 23 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair (444)
Analysis
HTS 6104.19.10 covers containing 23 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair (444) under heading 6104 (women's or girls' suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided…).
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 13.6%. Compared with 6104.19.15 (of artificial fibers: other (644)), which pays duty-free, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 8.5 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 8.5%. 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 54.5%, 6.4 times the general rate.
The general duty rate is 8.5% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 61 (40th percentile of 227 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $850 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
