Analysis
HTS 6202.40.40 covers containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair under heading 6202 (women's or girls' overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski jackets)…). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 2 ten-digit suffixes, reported in dozens and kilograms.
The general rate is 43.4¢/kg + 19.7%, a specific or compound duty rather than a simple percentage, so the effective burden depends on the unit value of the goods: cheap goods pay proportionally more than expensive ones. Importers usually convert it to an ad valorem equivalent to compare it with other lines.
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 43.4¢/kg + 19.7%. 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.
For statistics it divides in two: 6202.40.40.11 for women's (435) and 6202.40.40.21 for girls' (435). Both pay the same duty; the suffix records which kind was imported.
