Analysis
HTS 6115.22.00 covers of synthetic fibers, measuring per single yarn 67 decitex or more (659) under heading 6115 (panty hose, tights, stockings, socks and other hosiery, including graduated compression…).
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 18.8%. Compared with 6115.10.05 (surgical panty hose and surgical stockings with graduated compression…), which pays duty-free, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 14.9 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 72%, 4.8 times the general rate.
