Chapter 67
Footwear, headgear and umbrellas
Chapter 67 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule sits in section XII (footwear, headgear and umbrellas). It has 4 headings and 13 eight-digit tariff lines.
The spread of 17 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here.
6 of its 13 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (46%) and 7 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 17%. The median line pays 3.4%.
The most finely divided heading is 6702 (artificial flowers, foliage and fruit and parts thereof; articles made of…), with 5 lines; fine division usually means the rates or the trade statistics differ enough to be worth separating.
2 of its 4 headings are entirely duty-free at the general rate: 6703 (human hair, dressed, thinned, bleached or…) and 6704 (wigs, false beards, eyebrows and eyelashes…).
The heading with the highest median rate is 6702 (artificial flowers, foliage and fruit and parts thereof; articles made of…) at 8.4%.
