Children's backpacksHTS 4202.92.3120travel, sports, and similar bags, with outer surface of textile materials, of man-made fibers, backpacks

Explanation

Heading 4202 covers travel goods, including knapsacks and backpacks. CBP placed these children's packs on the line for travel, sports and similar bags with an outer surface of textile materials, of man-made fibers, backpacks. The outer surface of each pack is 100 percent polyester, which the letter identifies as a man-made textile material, and each has two straps worn over the shoulders on the back.

Does this apply to your product?

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

  • Is it a backpack with two straps worn over the shoulders on the back?
  • Is the outer surface a man-made textile such as polyester?
  • Is it made to carry personal effects during travel?

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