Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 35% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 35% duty.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 37% of the 19 tariff lines in chapter 65, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.
It is the only US line under subheading 6507.00, so the six-digit code used by every Harmonized System country and the eight-digit US line describe the same goods; a foreign tariff or an exporter's invoice showing 6507.00 points straight here.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 315990 (Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing), an industry of 729 US establishments employing 7,925 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
