Why is HTS 8205.40.00.00 a 10-digit statistical suffix?
The 10-digit format is used for CBP entry reporting to track quantity / form; actual column rates are typically set at the 6- or 8-digit parent subheading, and this page inherits those rates. Use the Chapter breadcrumb above to see sibling tariff lines within the same chapter. This page is marked noindex because the duty-relevant signal lives at the parent level.
Is this the binding duty determination?
No. This page is a reference built on USITC + Federal Register open data. The binding classification and duty amount is determined by CBP at entry. AD/CVD and product-specific exclusions require separate review.
