Frequently asked

What does 9027 cover?
Instruments and apparatus for physical or chemical analysis (for example, polarimeters, refractometers, spectrometers, gas or smoke analysis apparatus); instruments and apparatus for measuring or checking viscosity, porosity, expansion, surface tension or the like; instruments and apparatus for measuring or checking quantities of heat, sound or light (including exposure meters); microtomes; parts and accessories thereof:. This is a heading-level category with several subordinate codes — open one to see its full duty breakdown.
Where does this data come from?
Codes and MFN base rates come from the full USITC HTS 2026 Rev.11 export. Section 301/232/122 surcharge mappings are approximated pending code-level review. Every rate carries a source_url and effective_from, so you can trace it back to the controlling notice.
