Additional notes 1. The duty-rate applicable to mixtures of this chapter shall be as follows: (a) in mixtures where one of the components represents at least 90 % by weight, the rate applicable to that component applies; (b) in other mixtures, the rate applicable shall be that of the component which results in the highest amount of import duty. 2.
