Analysis
Subheading 6304.11 covers knitted or crocheted, within heading 6304. The first six digits are shared by every country that uses the Harmonized System, so this part of the code is the same in the US, UK and EU schedules; the 3 US tariff lines below it are national.
The spread of 6.1 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 12%, applies to 6304.11.10 (knitted or crocheted: of cotton (362)).
None of its 3 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 5.9% to 12% with a median of 6.5%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
The US splits it as follows: 6304.11.10 for knitted or crocheted: of cotton (362) (12%), 6304.11.20 for of man-made fibers (666) (6.5%) and 6304.11.30 for knitted or crocheted: other (899) (5.9%).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Curtain and Linen Mills (314120). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
