Having an outer surface impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with rubber or plastics material which completely obscures the underlying fabric
Analysis
HTS 6113.00.10 covers having an outer surface impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with rubber or plastics material which completely obscures the underlying fabric under heading 6113 (garments, made up of knitted or crocheted fabrics of heading 5903, 5906 or 5907). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 3 ten-digit suffixes, reported in dozens and kilograms.
Within this group the rate runs from 7.1% to 7.1%. Compared with 6113.00.90 (garments, made up of knitted or crocheted fabrics of heading 5903…), which pays 7.1%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 3.3 percentage points.
The general duty rate is 3.8% of the customs value, which is at the low end of the rates in chapter 61 (21st percentile of 227 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $380 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
Goods that qualify under the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, the Caribbean Basin Initiative, and 10 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 3.8%. 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%, 17.1 times the general rate.
