6704.20.00

Analysis

HTS 6704.20.00 covers wigs, false beards, eyebrows and eyelashes, switches and the like, of human or animal hair or of textile materials; articles of human hair not elsewhere… under heading 6704 (wigs, false beards, eyebrows and eyelashes, switches and the like, of human or animal…).

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 46% of the 13 tariff lines in chapter 67, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.

The other lines in the same group are 6704.11.00 (of synthetic textile materials: complete wigs, duty-free), 6704.19.00 (of synthetic textile materials: other, duty-free) and 6704.90.00 (of other materials, duty-free).

Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 339999 (All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing), an industry of 3,012 US establishments employing 40,510 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
