Backpacking Tent – HS Code Classification & Duty Analysis
This report details the HS code classifications and associated duties for the items you’ve declared, focusing on “Backpacking Tent” and related components. We'll break down each HS code, explain its meaning, and highlight key considerations for import.
Important Note: Duty rates are subject to change. The information below is current as of today, but it’s crucial to verify with the latest customs regulations before importing. The 2025.4.2 date refers to potential changes in additional tariffs.
1. HS Code: 6306.22.10.00 – Backpacking Tents (Synthetic Fibers)
- Description: Tarpaulins, awnings and sunblinds; tents (including temporary canopies and similar articles); sails for boats, sailboards or landcraft; camping goods: Tents (including temporary canopies and similar articles): Of synthetic fibers: Backpacking tents
- Breakdown:
- 63: Linens, textile fabrics and textile articles, not elsewhere specified or included. (This chapter covers a broad range of textile products.)
- 06: Tarpaulins, awnings, sunblinds, tents, sails, etc. (Specifically focuses on these types of fabric structures.)
- 22: Tents and similar articles. (Narrows down to tents specifically.)
- 10: Of synthetic fibers. (Identifies the material composition.)
- Duty:
- Basic Duty: 0.0%
- Additional Duty: 7.5% (Currently) / 30% (After 2025.4.2)
- Total Duty: 37.5%
- Considerations:
- Material Verification: Confirm the tent is primarily made of synthetic fibers (e.g., polyester, nylon). If other materials are significant, a different HS code may apply.
- Classification Accuracy: Ensure the tent is accurately described as a "backpacking tent." Larger, more permanent tents might fall under a different sub-heading.

- Breakdown:
- 56: Textile waste and textile raw materials; paper yarn and paper textile materials. (This chapter covers materials used in textile production.)
- 09: Articles of yarn, strip, cordage, rope, cables, etc. (Focuses on these specific textile products.)
- 00: Other (This indicates a catch-all category for items not specifically listed.)
- 40: Other (Further specifies the category.)
- Duty:
- Basic Duty: 3.9%
- Additional Duty: 25.0% (Currently) / 30% (After 2025.4.2)

3. HS Code: 7326.90.86.88 – Other Articles of Iron or Steel (Other)
- Description: Other articles of iron or steel: Other: Other: Other Other
- Breakdown:
- 73: Articles of iron or steel. (This chapter covers a wide range of iron and steel products.)
- 26: Other articles of iron or steel. (Focuses on miscellaneous iron and steel items.)
- 90: Other (This indicates a catch-all category.)
- 86: Other (Further specifies the category.)
- 88: Other (Even further specifies the category.)
- Duty:
- Basic Duty: 2.9%
- Additional Duty: 25.0% (Currently) / 30% (After 2025.4.2)
- Total Duty: 82.9%
- Considerations:
- Component Identification: This HS code likely applies to metal components used in the tent, such as poles, stakes, or buckles.
- Steel/Aluminum Distinction: The "steel" designation is important. If the components are aluminum, a different HS code (7616.99.51.90) applies.
