About HTS 9607
HTS code 9607 classifies imports of: Slide fasteners and parts thereof:. This line sits within Chapter 96 (Miscellaneous manufactured articles), Section XX (Miscellaneous Manufactured Articles), and is catalogued as a heading in the USITC 2026 Basic Edition. The schedule specifies ad valorem (percentage-of-value) duty for this line.

The general (MFN / Column 1 General) rate for HTS 9607 is Free, which applies to most trading partners of the United States. No special preferential rate is listed for this line, so FTA origin alone will not reduce the general duty. Because the general rate is Free, most imports under this code enter the US without duty, though anti-dumping, countervailing, or Section 301 tariffs can still apply depending on country of origin.
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.
