Printed columns from the official fiscal-year tariff. CD, SD, VAT, AIT, AT, RD and TTI are preserved as published, without adding percentage or currency units that this table does not specify. Blank cells and dashes are not confirmed zeros. TTI is the source’s printed tax incidence, not a calculated shipment total. Valuation, exemptions, SROs, origin and importer conditions require separate checks. This reference is separate from historical WITS averages; no line-level effective date is inferred.
