Illustrations of the water slide and all its parts were submitted. The article will be classified in Chapter 95 of the HTS, as fairground amusements.

The applicable subheading for the waterslide, including the starting towers and stairways, the slide support system, and the miscellaneous hardware will be 9508.90.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for merry-go-rounds, boat-swings, shooting galleries and other fairground amusements; traveling circuses and traveling menageries; traveling theaters; parts and accessories thereof: other. The rate of duty will be free.
