Truck assemblies, axles and wheels, and parts thereof: other truck assemblies
Analysis
HTS 8607.12.00 covers truck assemblies, axles and wheels, and parts thereof: other truck assemblies under heading 8607 (parts of railway or tramway locomotives or rolling stock).
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 3.9%. Compared with 8607.91.00 (other: of locomotives), which pays duty-free, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 3.6 percentage points.
The column 2 rate, for countries without normal trade relations, is 45%, 12.5 times the general rate.
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 3.6%. 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 general duty rate is 3.6% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 86 (61st percentile of 32 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $360 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.
