Rainbow Keychain
A rainbow keychain is a decorative accessory typically attached to keyrings, zippers, backpacks, or other items for ornamentation or identification. It commonly features a design incorporating the colors of the rainbow spectrum – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet – and often symbolizes diversity, inclusion, and LGBTQ+ pride.
Material
Rainbow keychains are manufactured from a variety of materials, including:
- Acrylic: A common and affordable option, often used for flat, printed designs or layered acrylic charms.
- PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride): Offers flexibility and durability, suitable for soft enamel or 3D molded designs.
- Metal: Frequently used for keychain rings and chains, and sometimes for the rainbow element itself, offering a more premium feel. Alloys like zinc alloy are common.
- Fabric: Woven or braided fabric strips can be used to create rainbow-colored keychains, often in the form of pom-poms, tassels, or wristbands attached as keychains.
- Silicone: Provides a soft, flexible, and often rubbery texture.
- Plastic: Various types of plastic can be used, often for simpler designs.

Based on the provided information, classifying a "rainbow keychain" requires careful consideration of its material and specific characteristics. Here's a breakdown of potential HS codes, based solely on the reference material:
-
3926903300: This code covers "Other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: Other: Beads, bugles and spangles, not strung (except temporarily) and not set; articles thereof, not elsewhere specified or included: Handbags". If the rainbow keychain is constructed primarily of plastic and incorporates beads or spangles as decorative elements, this code may be applicable. The reference material indicates a 6.5% basic tariff rate and no additional surcharges, resulting in a total tariff rate of 36.5%.
-
7117904500: This code covers "Imitation jewelry: Other: Other: Valued not over 20 cents per dozen pieces or parts: Toy jewelry (except parts)". If the keychain is considered "toy jewelry" and its value does not exceed 20 cents per dozen pieces, this code could be relevant. The reference material specifies a basic tariff rate of 0.0%, an additional surcharge of 0.0%, and a surcharge of 30.0% after April 2, 2025, resulting in a total tariff rate of 30.0%.
-
9606296000: This code covers "Buttons, press-fasteners, snap-fasteners and press-studs, button molds and other parts of these articles; button blanks: Buttons: Other: Other: Other". If the keychain incorporates button-like elements as part of its design, this code may be applicable. The reference material indicates a basic tariff rate of 2.9%, an additional surcharge of 25.0%, and a surcharge of 30.0% after April 2, 2025, resulting in a total tariff rate of 57.9%.
Important Considerations:
- Material Verification: The classification heavily depends on the primary material of the keychain. If the keychain is made of plastic, HS code 3926903300 is a strong possibility. If it's metal-based and considered jewelry, HS code 7117904500 might be more appropriate.
- Value Threshold: For HS code 7117904500, ensure the value of the keychain does not exceed 20 cents per dozen pieces.
- Toy Jewelry Definition: If classifying under HS code 7117904500, confirm whether the keychain meets the definition of "toy jewelry" according to customs regulations.
- Post-April 2, 2025 Tariffs: Be aware that several HS codes are subject to increased surcharges after April 2, 2025.
