How much is the import duty on parts of goods of heading 8801 from Italy?

A shipment of parts of goods of heading 8801 classified under HTS 8807.30.00 and made in Italy currently pays a total of 10.00% in U.S. import duty. That total is built from two lines, not one: the Column 1 general rate of Free (this subheading is duty-free under the normal tariff), plus the Section 301 forced-labor action of 10.00% charged under Chapter 99. Customers who look up only the base rate in the tariff schedule and stop there are under-budgeting this shipment by 10.00%.

The duty stack, line by line

U.S. duty on this code is assembled from separate legal instruments, each with its own authority. Here is what each line on the entry is:

The base line is HTS 8807.30.00.30 itself at Free, the ordinary most-favoured-nation rate that applies to every origin with normal trade relations with the United States.

HTS 9903.05.39 adds 10.00% under the Section 301 forced-labor action — in force since 24 July 2026 across 60 economies including Italy, charged on the entered value on top of the Column 1 rate and following the origin of the goods rather than the route they travel.

Worked example: a $10,000 shipment

Take one ocean shipment of parts of goods of heading 8801 with an entered value of $10,000 — the customs value of the goods, before freight and insurance. At 10.00%, the duty is $1,000.00. Of that, $0.00 is the Column 1 duty and $1,000.00 is Chapter 99 additional duty. On top of the duty, the entry attracts a merchandise processing fee of $34.64 and, because it arrives by vessel, a harbor maintenance fee of $12.50. Duty and fees together come to $1,047.14, and the engine puts the landed cost of the goods at $11,047.14.

These are ad valorem rates, so a $100,000 entry of the same goods carries about $10,000 in duty, though MPF is capped per entry. Run your own value, entry date and HTS code through the tariff simulator for the same calculation against the same engine.

What changed, and when

The rate on this code has moved. Priced with an entry date of 15 October 2025, the same shipment would have paid 0% — the Column 1 rate alone, with no Chapter 99 line. Today it pays 10.00%, higher by 10.00 percentage points.

One thing that is often confused with this: IEEPA tariffs are not part of the calculation. The Supreme Court ruled against the IEEPA programme on 20 February 2026, and this engine applies no IEEPA duty on any entry date. Every line above is Section 301, 232, 201 or 122 — separate statutes, unaffected by that ruling.

Priced at 15 May 2026 the same entry would have paid 0%. The Section 122 balance-of-payments surcharge that ran from 24 February to 23 July 2026 did not attach to this code, so the difference between that date and today comes from measures introduced since, not from the surcharge expiring.

MPF, HMF and what else lands on the entry

Duty is not the whole bill to Customs. The merchandise processing fee is ad valorem with a statutory floor and ceiling per entry — $34.64 on this $10,000 example. The harbor maintenance fee is charged on vessel arrivals only, $12.50 here; the same shipment flown in would pay no HMF.

Not in any of these figures: antidumping and countervailing duties, excise taxes, quota charges, bond costs, and the freight and brokerage that make up the rest of your landed cost. AD/CVD is worth checking before you commit to a supplier — it is assessed on the producer and exporter, not just on the HTS code, and it can dwarf the tariff.

U.S. imports of 8807.30.00 from Italy

Between March and July 2026 the U.S. imported $7.0 billion under HTS 8807.30.00 from the 55 origins in this dataset; $495 million of it — 7.1% — came from Italy, making Italy a mid-sized supplier on this subheading. The largest were Japan (14.2%), the United Kingdom (12.9%), Mexico (11.8%), France (10.4%) and Canada (8.7%).

Census also reports duty actually collected: entries of HTS 8807.30.00.30 from Italy paid an average effective duty of 10.00% of value over those months. That tracks the 10.00% priced here closely, a good sign the stack above reflects what importers really pay. Treat it as a sanity check on your own numbers, not a forecast of your entry.

Planning around this number

Classification drives this: the page prices HTS 8807.30.00.30, the largest 10-digit line under 8807.30.00 for Italy by import value, and a neighbouring line in the same subheading can carry different Chapter 99 exposure. Entry date matters as much as origin — the gap between the dates above is a change in law, not in your goods.
