Analysis
HTS 8528.72.62 covers with a video display diagonal not exceeding 34.29 cm under heading 8528 (monitors and projectors, not incorporating television reception apparatus; reception…).
Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 5%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 8528.72.97 (other: other), at 5%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 5 percentage points.
Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 58% of the 624 tariff lines in chapter 85. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 25% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 25% duty.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 334310 (Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturing), an industry of 539 US establishments employing 10,977 people. That is the industry code a US manufacturer of the same product would normally use.
