Heading 9503 names dolls, other toys and puzzles. CBP placed the kit on the line for other toys that are children's products labeled or determined by the importer as intended for use by persons 3 to 12 years of age; the kit is principally designed for the entertainment of children ages 3 and older, and its pieces are packaged together in a blister pack for retail sale as one activity play kit.

The letter also notes. The letter notes that imports of this product may be subject to Section 133 of the Customs Regulations if they copy or simulate a registered trademark, trade name or copyright recorded with CBP.

Does this apply to your product?

It likely does if you can answer yes to each of these:

  • Is it a toy kit made for children's imaginative role play?
  • Is it principally designed for the entertainment of children?
  • Is it made for children ages 3 and older?
  • Are the pieces packaged together for retail sale as one play kit?

A no to any of them can mean a different code. A licensed broker can classify your product.
