Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to duty-free. Compared with 8522.90.80 (other: other), which pays duty-free, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 3.9 percentage points.

The general duty rate is 3.9% of the customs value, which is above most the rates in chapter 85 (88th percentile of 624 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $390 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.

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%, 9.0 times the general rate.
