Machinery containing brazed aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers
Analysis
HTS 8419.60.10 covers machinery containing brazed aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers under heading 8419 (machinery, plant or laboratory equipment, whether or not electrically heated (excluding…).
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 4.2%. Compared with 8419.90.85 (of electromechanical tools for working in the hand with…), which pays duty-free, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 4.2 percentage points.
The general duty rate is 4.2% of the customs value, which is above most the rates in chapter 84 (86th percentile of 823 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $420 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
Goods that qualify under GSP, the Australia FTA, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, the Colombia TPA, and 12 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 4.2%. It is also eligible under GSP, the developing-country programme, which Congress has to renew; check whether GSP is in force on the entry date.
The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 35%, 8.3 times the general rate.
