Analysis
HTS 8302.49.40 covers harness and saddlery or riding-bridle hardware, and parts thereof: other under heading 8302 (base metal mountings, fittings and similar articles suitable for furniture, doors…).
Rates on the nearby lines range from 3.5% to 7.5%. The costliest confusion would be with 8302.49.20 (coated or plated with precious metal) at 7.5%, a difference of 7.5 points on the customs value.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 50% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 50% duty.
There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 26% of the 58 tariff lines in chapter 83 that are also free. 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 8302.49.20 (coated or plated with precious metal, 7.5%), 8302.49.60 (of iron or steel, of aluminum or of zinc, 5.7%) and 8302.49.80 (other: other, 3.5%).
