Does this apply to your product?

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

  • Is it a set of small fabric bean bags?
  • Are the bags made of polyester fabric?
  • Is it designed mainly for play, such as throwing, catching, juggling or cornhole?

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