Analysis
HTS 6907.30.20 covers having not over 3229 cubes per square meter, most of which have straight lines under heading 6907 (ceramic flags and paving, hearth or wall tiles; ceramic mosaic cubes and the like…).
Goods that qualify under the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, AGOA, and 11 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 10%. It is also eligible under GSP, the developing-country programme, which Congress has to renew; check whether GSP is in force on the entry date.
The general duty rate is 10% of the customs value, which is above most the rates in chapter 69 (82nd percentile of 82 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $1,000 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
Rates on the nearby lines range from 8.5% to 10%. The costliest confusion would be with 6907.30.90 (glazed: other) at 8.5%, a difference of 1.5 points on the customs value.
The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 55%, 5.5 times the general rate.
