Analysis
HTS 6302.60.00 covers toilet linen and kitchen linen, of terry toweling or similar terry fabrics, of cotton under heading 6302 (bed linen, table linen, toilet linen and kitchen linen). 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 20.9%. The costliest confusion would be with 6302.31.50 (containing any embroidery, lace, braid, edging, trimming, piping or…) at 20.9%, a difference of 11.8 points on the customs value.
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 9.1%. 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 general duty rate is 9.1% of the customs value, which is above most the rates in chapter 63 (73rd percentile of 98 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $910 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 40%, 4.4 times the general rate.
