Other made up clothing accessories, knitted or crocheted; knitted or crocheted parts of garments or of clothing accessories
Analysis
Heading 6117 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers other made up clothing accessories, knitted or crocheted; knitted or crocheted parts of garments or of clothing accessories. It divides into 3 six-digit subheadings and 11 eight-digit tariff lines, with 44 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 13.4 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 14.6%, applies to 6117.80.85 (headbands, ponytail holders and similar articles) and 6117.80.95 (other: other).
None of its 11 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 1.2% to 14.6% with a median of 9.5%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
The largest subheadings are 6117.80 (other accessories, 5 lines), 6117.10 (shawls, scarves, mufflers, mantillas, veils and…, 4 lines) and 6117.90 (parts, 2 lines).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing (315990) and Apparel Knitting Mills (3151). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
