Analysis

HTS 6303.92.10 covers made up from fabrics described in subheading 5407.61.11, 5407.61.21 or 5407.61.91 (666) under heading 6303 (curtains (including drapes) and interior blinds; curtain or bed valances).

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 11.3%. 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.

Within this group the rate runs from 6.4% to 11.3%. Compared with 6303.19.21 (of other textile materials: other), which pays 6.4%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 4.9 percentage points.

The general duty rate is 11.3% of the customs value, which is above most the rates in chapter 63 (83rd percentile of 98 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $1,130 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.

The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 90%, 8.0 times the general rate.
