Compressors of a kind used in refrigerating equipment (including air conditioning): other
Analysis
HTS 8414.30.80 covers compressors of a kind used in refrigerating equipment (including air conditioning): other under heading 8414 (air or vacuum pumps, air or other gas compressors and fans; ventilating or recycling…). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 8 ten-digit suffixes, reported in number of items.
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 4.7%. Compared with 8414.90.10 (of fans (including blowers) and ventilating or recycling hoods), which pays 4.7%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 4.7 percentage points.
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 61% of the 823 tariff lines in chapter 84, 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.
The ten-digit suffixes separate not exceeding 200 horsepower, exceeding 200 horsepower, for motor vehicles, exceeding 1/4 horsepower but not…, exceeding 1 horsepower but not… and exceeding 3 horsepower but not… and 2 more. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.
