8708.99.41

Parts of other tractors (except road tractors): other parts for power trains

Analysis

HTS 8708.99.41 covers parts of other tractors (except road tractors): other parts for power trains under heading 8708 (parts and accessories of the motor vehicles of headings 8701 to 8705).

This line's footnotes point to one additional provision in Chapter 99: 9903.90.08 (measures on products of Russia). Chapter 99 duties are added on top of the general rate for goods of the countries they name, and they change more often than the rest of the schedule, so check the current CBP guidance before you rely on a total.

Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 2.5%. Compared with 8708.99.81 (other: other), which pays 2.5%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 2.5 percentage points.

The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 47% of the 212 tariff lines in chapter 87, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.

Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 27.5% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 27.5% duty.
