The tariff classification of a textile Costume from Hong Kong and China

Issued March 2, 2004 by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Tariff classification

HTS codes: 9505.90.6000

Headings: 9505

Product description

The retail packed costume will be considered a set. The bodysuit has a styling feature and a well-constructed neckline. The waist has flimsy construction and all the edges are visible over-lock stitched. We are unable to rule on Child Size MA (2-4) as that costume has a “cappet” not provided for examination. Your sample is returned as requested. The LA, KA and HA sized costumes meet the flimsy and non-durable requirements for classification within Heading 9505.

CBP rationale

The applicable subheading for item 5931, Child Sizes LA (4-6), KA (7-10) and HA (7-10+) only, will be 9505.90.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Festive, carnival or other entertainment articles, including magic tricks, and practical joke articles; parts and accessories thereof: Other: Other.
