Analysis
Heading 6701 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers skins and other parts of birds with their feathers or down, feathers, parts of feathers, down and articles thereof (other than goods of heading 0505 and worked quills and scapes). It has 2 tariff lines.
None of its 2 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 4.7% to 4.7% with a median of 4.7%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
Its lines are 6701.00.30 for articles of feathers or down (4.7%) and 6701.00.60 for skins and other parts of birds with their feathers or down… (4.7%).
Its median rate of 4.7% sits at the 65th percentile of the headings in chapter 67.
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing (339999). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
The heading text decides whether a product belongs here at all (General Rule of Interpretation 1); the subheadings and lines below it only apply once that is settled. Section and chapter notes can override the heading wording, so read them for borderline goods.
