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.

There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 58% of the 624 tariff lines in chapter 85 that are also free. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.

The other lines in the same group are 8504.90.20 (printed circuit assemblies, duty-free), 8504.90.65 (of the goods of subheading 8504.40 or 8504.50 for…, duty-free), 8504.90.75 (printed circuit assemblies: other, duty-free) and 8504.90.96 (other: other, duty-free).

Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing), an industry of 1,081 US establishments employing 54,983 people, the industry a domestic producer of these goods reports under.
