How to read this

The Special column on this line reads Free (CO,JO,KR,OM,PA,PE,S). The S in that list stands for USMCA, so goods that qualify as originating pay nothing here instead of the general rate of 12.8%.

No Section 338 program reaches this line, so a qualifying claim brings the duty to nothing.

From HTS Revision 18 (2026). Check this line in the official schedule before you make entry.
