6301.90.00

Blankets and traveling rugs: other blankets and traveling rugs

Analysis

HTS 6301.90.00 covers blankets and traveling rugs: other blankets and traveling rugs under heading 6301 (blankets and traveling rugs). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 3 ten-digit suffixes, reported in number of items and kilograms.

Rates on the nearby lines range from duty-free to 11.4%. The costliest confusion would be with 6301.20.00 (blankets (other than electric blankets) and traveling rugs, of wool…) at duty-free, a difference of 7.2 points on the customs value.

Goods that qualify under the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, the Caribbean Basin Initiative, and 11 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 7.2%. 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 column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 90%, 12.5 times the general rate.

The general duty rate is 7.2% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 63 (60th percentile of 98 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $720 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
