Analysis
HTS 6111.20.20 covers t-shirts, singlets and similar garments, except those imported as parts of sets (239) under heading 6111 (babies' garments and clothing accessories, knitted or crocheted).
Within this group the rate runs from 8.1% to 19.7%. Compared with 6111.20.60 (other: other), which pays 8.1%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 6.8 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 14.9%. 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 general duty rate is 14.9% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 61 (67th percentile of 227 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $1,490 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 90%, 6.0 times the general rate.
