8414.80

Analysis

Subheading 8414.80 covers other, except parts, within heading 8414. 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 4 US tariff lines below it are national.

3 of its 4 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (75%) and 1 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 3.7%. The median line pays duty-free.

The US splits it as follows: 8414.80.05 for turbochargers and superchargers (duty-free), 8414.80.16 for air compressors: other (duty-free), 8414.80.20 for other, except parts: other compressors (duty-free) and 8414.80.90 for other, except parts: other (3.7%).

By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing (333912). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.

Goods only reach 8414.80 once they fall within heading 8414 (air or vacuum pumps, air or other gas compressors and fans; ventilating or recycling…). 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.
