Question 1

What does HTS 2712.90 cover?

Accepted Answer

HTS 2712.90 is a 6-digit subheading of the U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule covering Petroleum jelly; paraffin wax, microcrystalline petroleum wax, slack wax, ozokerite, lignite wax, peat wax, other mineral waxes and similar products obtained by synthesis or by other processes, whether or not colored, other. It belongs to Chapter 27 and rolls up 2 10-digit statistical lines that brokers actually file at entry.

Question 2

What is the duty rate for HTS 2712.90?

Accepted Answer

Every 10-digit line under HTS 2712.90 carries a general (Column 1) duty rate of Free. Chapter 99 flags and potentially relevant AD/CVD order flags are shown at the per-line level; applicability depends on the shipment facts, written scope, and entry date.

Question 3

How do I find the right 10-digit line under HTS 2712.90?

Accepted Answer

U.S. Customs requires entries to be filed at the 10-digit statistical level — the broader subheading HTS 2712.90 is not directly fileable. Match your product description to the most specific 10-digit line in the list on this page; if multiple lines could apply, the General Rules of Interpretation (GRIs) and chapter notes determine which one governs.

Question 4

Are there potentially relevant AD/CVD order flags under HTS 2712.90?

Accepted Answer

Tandom's current catalog view links no potentially relevant AD/CVD (antidumping or countervailing duty) order flags to lines under HTS 2712.90. Check current Commerce scope materials and Federal Register notices before relying on an HTS-only screen.
