Adding _99 HTS to HTS Codes Table

These are step by step instructions on how to add the
_99 HtsIndex
 to the
HTS Codes
 maintenance table with the correct Content connection.
note
The HTS data in this process is just an example.
  1. Click your account settings on the top right corner.
  2. Click the
    Maintenance
     option and select
    HTS Codes
    .
  3. Click
    Add Record
     to open a pop-up that is connected to Content.
  4. Use the
    HS Number
     field to search for the record you need to add (without the "_99") and select it.
  5. Click
    Load SPI Codes
    .
    The
    SPI Code
     dropdown will become available and be populated with the different column rates, trade agreement’s SpiCode, and 301 chapter 99 to select from.
    For the standard 301 _99 HtsIndex, you need to select the record that shows "US COLUMN ONE – GENERAL Countries *
    AND
    * 9903XXXX" (where the chapter 99 is the one associated to the HTS).
  6. Select the appropriate
    SPI Code
     and click
    Submit
    .
    A new record where the "_99" is already populated will appear in the grid. You can add the dots to the
    HtsIndex
     and
    HtsNum
     if that is how you process HTS numbers through your system.
    The
    AdvaloremRate
     will only show the base duty rate and will update after the record is inserted.
  7. Click
    Insert
     on the left of the row.
The
_99 HtsIndex
 record will now be available and the
AdvaloremRate
 will now be the base rate plus the additional duty rate needed for the "_99" set up.
The record is now connected to Content and if the HTS details change, you can click
Update
 and the system will hold its additional duty rate.
