HS 842091 — Calendering or other rolling machines, other than for metals or glass, and cylinders therefor; parts thereof
Trade-statistics name: Cylinders For Pulp,Paper,Paperboard Cal Or Rol Mac
HS 842091 (HTS line 8420.91.10.00) imported into the United States from China at a declared value of $1,000 carries an estimated duty of $401, which is 40.1% of the declared value: a Column 1 general rate of 2.6%, plus additional duty of Section 301 (China) 25% under 9903.88.01 (U.S. note 20(b)) + Chapter 99 note family 12.5% under 9903.05.31 (U.S. note 52). That composition is what the USITC schedule dated 2026-11-06 and the Chapter 99 measures in force on that schedule produce; it excludes merchandise processing and harbor maintenance fees. The code's other statistical lines are priced between 37.5% and 40.1% at entry, so the HTS line -- not the six-digit code -- sets the rate.

What a China-origin shipment of HS 842091 pays at entry
The Column 1 rate is only the first layer. For goods originating in China, 3 of this code's 3 HTS lines also carry additional duty under Chapter 99 note family, Section 301 (China), so the priceable lines land between 37.5% and 40.1% of the declared value. The table stacks the two layers line by line; the last column is the duty on a $1,000 declared value, and each HTS line links to the calculator with that line and this origin already filled in.
| HTS line | Column 1 (MFN) | Additional duty (China) | Total ad valorem | Duty on $1,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Additional duty for origin CN (China) only, priced on a $1,000 declared value from the Chapter 99 composition the tariff API serves (schedule stamp 2026-11-11).

The five countries above are the largest. The remaining 11 countries account for $212.3K (8.89% of the total) and are not printed here; the count and that amount are exact, and the complete country list is part of the Pro trade-flow API.
Percentages are rounded to two decimals, so they may not add to exactly 100%; the dollar amounts sum to the total in the table footer without rounding.

Where this code sits in the schedule
Six digits is the last level the WCO Harmonized System defines internationally: chapter 84, heading 8420, subheading 842091. The US adds national digits below it — eight for the tariff line, ten for the statistical suffix — which is why two traders quoting “the HS code” can still disagree on the rate. Browse the ladder:

Frequently asked questions
What does an entry under HS 842091 cost for a China origin?
Column 1 is only the first layer. On 3 of this code's 3 HTS lines the additional Chapter 99 duty for a China origin is also charged (Chapter 99 note family, Section 301 (China)), so the entry lands at 37.5% to 40.1% of the declared value -- before merchandise processing and harbour maintenance fees. The layer table on this page lists the provision behind each line and the duty on a $1,000 value, and the calculator prices any other origin or value one line at a time.
Which products are classified under HS 842091?
842091 sits under heading 8420 (Calendering or other rolling machines, other than for metals or glass, and cylinders therefor; parts thereof). Its own statistical lines are: For textile calendering or rolling machines; For calendering or other rolling machines for machines for making paper pulp, paper or paperboard; Other. Classification follows the HTS text for the goods, not the marketing name, so match the wording before you file.
How do I estimate duty on an entry under 842091?
Duty is the entered value times the rate of the HTS line you declare, plus any Chapter 99 measure that applies to the shipment's origin. Under 842091 the Column 1 general rates run at 2.6% ad valorem on the single line that carries a percentage rate, with the other 2 duty-free; run your own value and origin through the free calculator to see the stacked number.
Where does this 842091 page get its numbers?
Rates, units and descriptions come verbatim from the USITC Harmonized Tariff Schedule export dated 2026-11-06; the import value and supplier shares come from the U.S. Census Bureau monthly trade series for September 2026. Both are named in the source line at the foot of the page, and neither is estimated by us.
