The general duty rate for HTS code 9822.04.40 is not specified, applying to standard trade partners (NTR). However, goods originating from Australia qualify for a special rate of Free (AU) under eligible FTA or preference programs. This means imports from Australia under the conditions outlined in the code description—specifically those falling under the listed 4-digit headings and adhering to U.S. note 16 quantitative limits—are exempt from duties. The required units are not specified, and the code does not contain subdivisions, so this duty structure applies directly to the listed HTS codes without hierarchical consideration.
