Plain-English explanation
HTS 9903.88.09 is a Chapter 99 tariff modification under Section 301. For a qualifying entry during this provision's effective period, the published rate notation is the duty provided in the applicable subheading + 10%; the source instructions determine how that notation relates to the underlying base duty. Its published country scope lists CN. Expired for entries on or after 2019-06-15.
Historical or scheduled rate mechanics
This catalog record does not establish an additive rate relationship, so the page preserves the published notation without adding it to the base rate. Expired for entries on or after 2019-06-15. The calculator checks the selected entry date and shipment facts before including any Chapter 99 provision.
