§ FAQFrequently asked
- What is the general MFN duty rate for HTS 8424?
- HTS 8424 (Mechanical appliances (whether or not hand operated) for projecting, dispersing or spraying liquids or powders; fire extinguishers, whether or not charged; spray guns and similar appliances; steam or sand blasting machines and similar jet projecting machines; parts thereof) is a heading-level row and carries no MFN rate of its own; the base rate is set on each subheading beneath it (see the subheading list on this page). This applies to imports from countries with normal trade relations status. For origins like China, additional Section 301, IEEPA, and reciprocal duties may stack on top of this base rate. Final duty is determined at CBP entry.
- Are there active Chapter 99 tariff overlays on HTS 8424?
- Yes. For China origin, 1 active Chapter 99 rule(s) currently stack on HTS 8424: Section 301 forced-labor action (China). Overlays apply by country of origin and effective date, and a single shipment can be subject to several at once — verify the current list against your classification before ordering.
- Is HTS 8424 subject to active AD/CVD orders?
- Yes. 9 active anti-dumping / countervailing duty case(s) reference HTS 8424 or its sub-codes, with origin countries including CN, VN, IN. AD/CVD scope is producer- and country-specific — coverage depends on the exact product, manufacturer, and origin. Verify against ITC/Commerce scope rulings, and consult a licensed broker if you suspect your goods may fall in scope.
- What's the total US import duty for HTS 8424 from China today?
- HTS 8424 is a heading-level row whose MFN base rate is set per subheading, so this page cannot state a complete total. The Chapter 99 overlays currently in force for China origin alone add about $1250.00 on a $10,000 customs value (~12.50%); the full duty is the subheading's MFN rate plus that stack. Actual duty is determined by CBP at entry based on classification, valuation, and rules in effect on the entry date.
- When was HTS 8424 last updated on Duty?
- The base HTS data on this page was last refreshed on September 8, 2026 (USITC release 2026HTSRev18). Chapter 99 overlays, AD/CVD case status, and Federal Register notices are synced daily; effective dates follow the source feeds.
