Analysis
Heading 8202 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers handsaws, and metal parts thereof; blades for saws of all kinds (including slitting, slotting or toothless saw blades), and base metal parts thereof. It divides into 7 six-digit subheadings and 9 eight-digit tariff lines, with 13 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 7.2 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 7.2%, applies to 8202.40.30 (with cutting parts containing by weight over 0.2…).
8 of its 9 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (89%) and 1 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 7.2%. The median line pays duty-free.
Its median rate of duty-free sits at the 21st percentile of the headings in chapter 82.
