8529.10.91

Analysis

HTS 8529.10.91 covers antennas and antenna reflectors of all kinds; parts suitable for use therewith: other under heading 8529 (parts suitable for use solely or principally with the apparatus of headings 8524 to 8528).

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.

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.

The other lines in the same group are 8529.10.21 (antennas and antenna reflectors of all kinds; parts…, duty-free) and 8529.10.40 (radar, radio navigational aid and radio remote control, duty-free).

Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 334220 (Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing), an industry of 645 US establishments employing 52,536 people. That is the industry code a US manufacturer of the same product would normally use.
