About HTS 6911.10.52.00
HTS code 6911.10.52.00 classifies imports of: Cups valued over $8 but not over $29 per dozen; saucers valued over $5.25 but not over $18.75 per dozen; soups, oatmeals and cereals valued over $9.30 but not over $33 per dozen; plates not over 22.9 cm in maximum diameter and valued over $8.50 but not over $31 per dozen; plates over 22.9 but not over 27.9 cm in maximum diameter and valued over $11.50 but not over $41 per dozen; platters or chop dishes valued over $40 but not over $143 per dozen; sugars valued over $23 but not over $85 per dozen; creamers valued over $20 but not over $75 per dozen; and beverage servers valued over $50 but not over $180 per dozen. This line sits within Chapter 69 (Refractory bricks, blocks, tiles and similar refractory ceramic constructional goods, other than those of siliceous fossil meals or similar siliceous earths:), Section XIII (Stone, Plaster, Cement; Ceramic; Glass), and is catalogued as a tariff line in the USITC 2026 Basic Edition. Duty is calculated against units of quantity: Dz Pcs. Getting the classification right is the single most important step in import compliance — a wrong code can mean overpayment of duty, shipment delays, or penalties at the border.
The general (MFN / Column 1 General) rate for HTS 6911.10.52.00 is 8%, which applies to most trading partners of the United States. A special preferential rate of "Free (A+,AU,BH,CL,CO,D,E,IL,JO,KR,MA,OM,P,PA,PE,S,SG)" 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 75% applies to imports from non-MFN countries such as Cuba and North Korea — a much higher historical "full" tariff.

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. Always verify the classification with a licensed customs broker before committing to a supply contract — this page is a research tool, not a customs ruling.
