Front windscreens (windshields), rear windows and other windows specified in subheading note 1 to this chapter

Analysis

HTS 8708.22.00 covers front windscreens (windshields), rear windows and other windows specified in subheading note 1 to this chapter under heading 8708 (parts and accessories of the motor vehicles of headings 8701 to 8705).

Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 2.5%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 8708.80.05 (for tractors suitable for agricultural use: other), at duty-free: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 2.5 percentage points.

The general duty rate is 2.5% of the customs value, which is in the middle of the rates in chapter 87 (67th percentile of 212 lines with an ad valorem rate). On a shipment valued at $10,000 that is $250 in duty before any Chapter 99 additions or preference claims.

Goods that qualify under GSP, the Australia FTA, the Automotive Products Trade Act, the Bahrain FTA, the Chile FTA, and 13 others can enter duty-free instead of paying 2.5%. 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 25%, 10.0 times the general rate.
