Section averages orient only; duty is set at the individual tariff-line level (USITC HTS 2026 Basic Edition).

A duty-free section, not a low-rate one

Every rated line in Section XXI is duty-free under the general (MFN) column. Start with the chapter table to identify the exact HTS line; the absence of a dutiable-average rank is part of the result.

Verify the exact classification before relying on the 0% general-rate result.
