Analysis
Heading 6301 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers blankets and traveling rugs. It divides into 5 six-digit subheadings and 5 eight-digit tariff lines, with 10 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 11.4 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 11.4%, applies to 6301.10.00 (electric blankets (666)).
1 of its 5 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (20%) and 4 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 11.4%. The median line pays 8.4%.
The largest subheadings are 6301.10 (unnamed, 1 line), 6301.20 (unnamed, 1 line), 6301.30 (unnamed, 1 line) and 6301.40 (unnamed, 1 line).
Its median rate of 8.4% sits at the 66th percentile of the headings in chapter 63.
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Curtain and Linen Mills (314120) and Small Electrical Appliance Manufacturing (335210). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
