Analysis
HTS 7117.19.60 covers toy jewelry valued not over 8 cents per piece under heading 7117 (imitation jewelry).
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 11%. Compared with 7117.19.90 (other: other), which pays 11%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 11 percentage points.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 110% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 110% duty.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 45% of the 108 tariff lines in chapter 71, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 339910 (Jewelry and Silverware Manufacturing), an industry of 1,844 US establishments employing 19,188 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
Every edition we compared, from Jan 2023 to Oct 2026 (Rev. 22), shows the same general rate of Free.
