Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 930629 when importing or exporting parts of shotgun cartridges, such as plastic wads and cartridge cases. For example, if you're shipping a batch of 10,000 plastic wads designed for 12-gauge shotgun cartridges, this is the correct code.

This code specifically covers parts used in shotgun ammunition, distinguishing it from other ammunition types like rifle cartridges, which fall under different classifications. If you were dealing with components for rifle ammunition, you would look at HS-6 930621 instead.

Components classified under this code are essential for the assembly of shotgun cartridges. They include items such as plastic or fiber wads, which help seal the propellant gases and ensure proper shot dispersion. Understanding this distinction is crucial for accurate customs declarations.

When considering similar codes, note that HS-6 930631 covers parts of cartridges for other types of firearms, like handguns. If your shipment includes wads or cases for those, you would need to classify them differently.
