HTS tariff line · chapter 73
7314.12.10
With meshes not finer than 12 wires to the lineal centimeter in warp or filling
Analysis
HTS 7314.12.10 covers with meshes not finer than 12 wires to the lineal centimeter in warp or filling under heading 7314 (cloth (including endless bands), grill, netting and fencing, of iron or steel wire…).
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 35% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 35% duty.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 77% of the 250 tariff lines in chapter 73, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Duty-free at the general rate does not rule out additional duties under Chapter 99, such as Section 301 or Section 232 measures, which depend on the country of origin.
The other lines in the same group are 7314.12.20 (with meshes finer than 12 but not finer than 36 wires to…, duty-free), 7314.12.30 (with 94 or more wires to the lineal centimeter, duty-free), 7314.12.60 (fourdrinier wires, seamed or not seamed, suitable for use…, duty-free) and 7314.12.90 (with meshes finer than 36 wires to the lineal centimeter in…, duty-free).
