Common ways this question is asked

What each of these duties is

Normal duty (MFN, column 1-General)

The normal duty is the column 1-General rate the Harmonized Tariff Schedule sets for this code. Every country the United States trades with normally pays it unless a trade agreement or a preference programme says otherwise.

Reciprocal tariff

The reciprocal tariff is the across-the-board rate applied to a trading partner. For some partners a ceiling applies, so the reciprocal rate and the normal rate together cannot exceed that ceiling.
