Supporting authority. Classification applies CBP’s General Rules of Interpretation against the USITC Harmonized Tariff Schedule. Review precedent in CBP CROSS rulings for this product, or request a binding ruling via CBP eRulings for certainty.
AI-assisted decision support — not a binding CBP ruling, nor legal advice. The importer of record is responsible for the final classification under CBP’s “reasonable care” standard. Confirm the 10-digit code against the USITC HTS and CBP CROSS, or obtain a binding ruling, before filing.
