Common questions
- What is HTS code 3917?
- HTS heading 3917 covers tubes, pipes and hoses and fittings therefor (for example, joints, elbows, flanges), of plastics. It sits in Chapter 39 (plastics) of the US Harmonized Tariff Schedule and contains 23 tariff lines.
- What is the duty rate for HTS 3917?
- General duty rates from 3.1% to 6.5%, with 1 duty-free line. The general rate applies to most-favoured-nation trading partners; goods from countries with a free trade agreement may qualify for a reduced or duty-free special rate.
- How many digits does a full HTS code have?
- US import entries require the full 10-digit HTS code. Heading 3917 is the first four digits — the remaining six narrow it down to the specific product, which is what determines the duty rate you actually pay.
