8411.22

Analysis

Subheading 8411.22 covers of a power exceeding 1,100 kW, within heading 8411. 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.

Every one of its 2 tariff lines is duty-free at the general rate, so classification within the subheading affects statistics and Chapter 99 measures rather than the base duty.

The US splits it as follows: 8411.22.40 for of a power exceeding 1,100 kW: aircraft turbines (duty-free) and 8411.22.80 for of a power exceeding 1,100 kW: other (duty-free).

By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing (336412) and Turbine and Turbine Generator Set Units Manufacturing (333611). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.

Goods only reach 8411.22 once they fall within heading 8411 (turbojets, turbopropellers and other gas turbines, and parts thereof). 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.
