Tablet Holder HS Code Classification
Based on the provided reference data, classifying "Tablet Holder" requires careful consideration of its material composition and specific design. Here's a breakdown of potential HS codes, with explanations:
1. 4202.92.94.00 – Cases designed to protect and transport compact disks (CD's), CD Rom disks, CD players, cassette players, and/or cassettes (Total Tax Rate: 72.6%)
- 42: Articles of leather or of composition leather, of sheeting of plastics, of textile materials, of vulcanized fiber or of paperboard, or wholly or mainly covered with such materials or with paper. This chapter broadly covers containers and similar items.
- 02: Trunks, suitcases, vanity cases, etc., and similar containers.
- 92: Other. This sub-heading covers cases designed for specific electronic devices.
- 94: Cases designed to protect and transport compact disks (CD's), CD Rom disks, CD players, cassette players, and/or cassettes. Although specifically mentioning CDs, this code is often applied to cases for similar portable electronics like tablets.
- 00: Further specification.
- Applicability: If the tablet holder is designed primarily for protection and transport, and is made of leather, plastic, or textile materials, this is a strong candidate.
2. 3926.90.48.00 – Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: Other: Photo albums (Total Tax Rate: 33.4%)
- 39: Plastics and articles thereof. This chapter covers items made of plastic.
- 26: Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914.
- 90: Other.
- 48: Photo albums. While seemingly unrelated, this code is sometimes used for molded plastic holders, especially if they have a simple design.
- 00: Further specification.
- Applicability: If the tablet holder is entirely made of plastic and is a simple molded design (e.g., a basic stand or case), this could apply.
3. 3926.90.99.89 – Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: Other: Other (Total Tax Rate: 42.8%)
- 39: Plastics and articles thereof.
- 26: Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914.
- 90: Other.
- 99: Other. This is a broad "catch-all" category for plastic articles not specifically classified elsewhere.
- 89: Further specification.
- Applicability: If the tablet holder is made of plastic and doesn’t fit into more specific categories, this is a likely option.
4. 4205.00.05.00 – Of a kind used in machinery or mechanical appliances or for other technical uses: Belting leather cut or wholly or partly manufactured into forms or shapes suitable for conversion into belting (Total Tax Rate: 57.9%)
- 42: Articles of leather or of composition leather, etc.
- 05: Other articles of leather or of composition leather.
- 00: Further specification.
- 05: Of a kind used in machinery or mechanical appliances or for other technical uses.
- Applicability: If the tablet holder is made of leather and is designed to hold a tablet in a mechanical application (e.g., a mount for a car), this could be applicable.
Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Material Composition: The primary material (leather, plastic, textile, etc.) is the most crucial factor in determining the correct HS code.
- Design & Function: Is it primarily for protection/transport, or is it designed for a specific function (e.g., a mount, a stand)?
- 2025.4.2 Tariff Changes: Be aware of the tariff changes taking effect on April 2, 2025, as these will significantly impact the total tax rate.
- Detailed Description: Provide a very detailed description of the tablet holder to your customs broker, including dimensions, materials, and intended use.
- Supplier Documentation: Obtain documentation from your supplier specifying the exact materials used in the tablet holder.
- Consult a Broker: It is highly recommended to consult with a qualified customs broker to ensure accurate classification and avoid potential penalties. They can review your specific product and provide expert guidance.
