The product will be classified in Chapter 95 of the HTS as other games. The sample will be returned, as requested by your office.

The applicable subheading for the “peeball” will be 9504.90.9080, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for articles for arcade, table or parlor gamesparts and accessories thereof: other: otherother. The rate of duty will be free.
