Methodology

The analysis uses China-origin 2025 import rows identified in USTariffRates trade data derived from U.S. Census import filings. The HS6 table ranks product categories by calculated duty. The chapter table groups HS6 rows by the first two HTS digits.

Calculated duty is a historical import-statistics field, not a legal quote for future shipments. Current duty treatment can vary by 10-digit HTS code, product characteristics, country of origin, trade remedy applicability, exclusions, and entry date.
