Analysis
HTS 9616.10.00 covers scent sprayers and similar toilet sprayers, and mounts and heads therefor under heading 9616 (scent sprayers and similar toilet sprayers, and mounts and heads therefor; powder puffs…).
Neighbouring lines carry rates from 4.3% to 4.3%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 9616.20.00 (powder puffs and pads for the application of cosmetics or toilet…), at 4.3%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 4.3 percentage points.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 40% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 40% duty.
Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 25% of the 104 tariff lines in chapter 96. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.
The other line in the same group is 9616.20.00 (powder puffs and pads for the application of cosmetics or…, 4.3%).
