Articles of cement, of concrete or of artificial stone, whether or not reinforced
Analysis
Heading 6810 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers articles of cement, of concrete or of artificial stone, whether or not reinforced. It divides into 4 six-digit subheadings and 6 eight-digit tariff lines, with 9 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 9 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 9%, applies to 6810.19.14 (floor and wall tiles: other).
2 of its 6 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (33%) and 4 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 9%. The median line pays 3.55%.
The largest subheadings are 6810.19 (other, 3 lines), 6810.11 (unnamed, 1 line), 6810.91 (unnamed, 1 line) and 6810.99 (unnamed, 1 line).
Its median rate of 3.55% sits at the 73rd percentile of the headings in chapter 68.
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Other Concrete Product Manufacturing (327390), Clay Building Material and Refractories Manufacturing (327120) and Concrete Block and Brick Manufacturing (327331). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
