Analysis
HTS 6301.20.00 covers blankets (other than electric blankets) and traveling rugs, of wool or fine animal hair under heading 6301 (blankets and traveling rugs). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 2 ten-digit suffixes, reported in number of items and kilograms.
Within this group the rate runs from 7.2% to 11.4%. Compared with 6301.10.00 (electric blankets (666)), which pays 11.4%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 11.4 percentage points.
For statistics it divides in two: 6301.20.00.10 for not over 3 meters in length (464) and 6301.20.00.20 for over 3 meters in length (410). Both pay the same duty; the suffix records which kind was imported.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 14% of the 98 tariff lines in chapter 63, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Duty-free at the general rate does not rule out additional duties under Chapter 99, such as Section 301 or Section 232 measures, which depend on the country of origin.
The other lines in the same group are 6301.10.00 (electric blankets (666), 11.4%), 6301.30.00 (blankets (other than electric blankets) and traveling rugs…, 8.4%), 6301.40.00 (blankets (other than electric blankets) and traveling rugs…, 8.5%) and 6301.90.00 (blankets and traveling rugs: other blankets and traveling…, 7.2%).
