Explanation
Heading 9503 names other toys, and CBP placed both kits there. Within the heading, the line is for children's products as defined in 15 U.S.C. § 2052 that the importer labels or determines as intended for use by persons 3 to 12 years of age.
Each kit's pieces are stored together and used together for imitative role play, and each is principally designed for the amusement of children 3 years of age and older.
Does this apply to your product?
It likely does if you can answer yes to each of these:
- Is it a toy role play set of pretend hair tools, play makeup or similar pieces sold together?
- Is it principally designed for the amusement of children?
- Is it labeled or determined as intended for children 3 to 12 years of age?
A no to any of them can mean a different code. A licensed broker can classify your product.
