6205.30.20

Analysis

HTS 6205.30.20 covers other: other under heading 6205 (men's or boys' shirts). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 11 ten-digit suffixes, reported in dozens and kilograms.

The general rate is 29.1¢/kg + 25.9%, 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 29.1¢/kg + 25.9%. 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 ten-digit suffixes separate men's, boys', men's, boys', men's and imported as parts of playsuits and 2 more. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.
