If entitled under regulations of the United States Internal Revenue Service to a type designation which includes the name "Marsala" and if so designated on the approved label

HTS code 2204.21.60.00 classifies imports of: If entitled under regulations of the United States Internal Revenue Service to a type designation which includes the name "Marsala" and if so designated on the approved label. This line sits within Chapter 22 (Beverages, spirits and vinegar), Section IV (Prepared Foodstuffs; Beverages, Spirits; Tobacco), and is catalogued as a tariff line in the USITC 2026 Basic Edition. Duty is calculated against units of quantity: liters. A footnote applies to this classification: Imports under this subheading may be subject to Federal Excise Tax (26 U.S.C. 5041). See 9903.88.03.

The general (MFN / Column 1 General) rate for HTS 2204.21.60.00 is 5.3¢/liter, which applies to most trading partners of the United States. A special preferential rate of "Free (A,AU,BH,CL,CO,D,E,IL,KR,MA,OM,P,PA,PE,S,SG)2.3¢/liter(JO)" may reduce or eliminate duty when goods qualify under a free trade agreement such as USMCA, CAFTA-DR, or one of the bilateral FTAs. The Column 2 rate of 33¢/liter applies to imports from non-MFN countries such as Cuba and North Korea, a much higher historical "full" tariff.

Footnotes: Imports under this subheading may be subject to Federal Excise Tax (26 U.S.C. 5041). See 9903.88.03. Beyond the published rate, importers should check for Section 201 safeguards, Section 301 China tariffs, and any active AD/CVD orders that can materially change the real landed cost.
