About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This classification pertains to printed trade advertising materials, specifically focusing on catalogs, price lists, and notices intended to promote the sale or rental of foreign products, or to advertise foreign or international transportation and commercial insurance services. A key characteristic is that the entity making the offer, whose principal place of business or residence is abroad, is the defining factor for this category. This ensures that advertising for foreign goods and services, originating from foreign entities, is correctly identified.

It is important to distinguish this category from its siblings. Unlike 4911.10.00.20, which covers printed catalogs specifically for current offers of *United States* products, this category is exclusively for offers relating to foreign products or services. Furthermore, it differs from 4911.10.00.60, which includes tourist and other literature focused on places, travel, or educational opportunities *outside* the United States, and from 4911.10.00.80, which serves as a catch-all for other printed matter. This node is a leaf node, meaning it does not have further subcategories, and therefore, classification within this specific code is determined by the criteria outlined in its description.
