7009.92

Framed

Analysis

Subheading 7009.92 covers framed, within heading 7009. The first six digits are shared by every country that uses the Harmonized System, so this part of the code is the same in the US, UK and EU schedules; the 2 US tariff lines below it are national.

None of its 2 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 6.5% to 7.8% with a median of 7.15%, so the line you choose sets the duty.

The US splits it as follows: 7009.92.10 for not over 929 cm2 in reflecting area (7.8%) and 7009.92.50 for over 929 cm2 in reflecting area (6.5%).

By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Glass Product Manufacturing Made of Purchased Glass (327215). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.

Goods only reach 7009.92 once they fall within heading 7009 (glass mirrors, whether or not framed, including rear-view mirrors). Under General Rule 6, subheadings are then compared only with others at the same level, so a product is matched against its siblings, not against lines elsewhere in the chapter.
