Analysis
Heading 6910 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers ceramic sinks, washbasins, washbasin pedestals, baths, bidets, water closet bowls, flush tanks, urinals and similar sanitary fixtures. It divides into 2 six-digit subheadings and 2 eight-digit tariff lines, with 7 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
None of its 2 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 5.7% to 5.8% with a median of 5.75%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
The largest subheadings are 6910.10 (unnamed, 1 line) and 6910.90 (unnamed, 1 line).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Pottery, Ceramics, and Plumbing Fixture Manufacturing (327110). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
Its median rate of 5.75% sits at the 43rd percentile of the headings in chapter 69.
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.
