About heading 1404
Vegetable products not elsewhere specified or included
Heading 1404 covers vegetable products that are not specified or included in any other heading. It is split first into cotton linters (1404.20) and all other goods (1404.90), and the 1404.90 lines are then divided by whether the material is vegetable hair, a material used mainly in brooms or brushes, a raw dyeing or tanning material, or a residual other. Most lines in this heading are free of duty, but broom and brush materials and vegetable hair carry rates.
