Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 950640 when importing or exporting table tennis articles and equipment, such as paddles, balls, and nets. For instance, if you're shipping a set of table tennis paddles and balls for a sports retailer, this code applies.
This code specifically covers equipment related to table tennis, distinguishing it from other sports equipment under the same heading. For example, while HS-6 950641 pertains to table tennis tables, HS-6 950640 focuses on the smaller, portable items needed to play the game.
If you're dealing with table tennis accessories like replacement rubber sheets for paddles or specific training equipment, you'll also use this HS-6. It's important to differentiate these items from general sports equipment, which might fall under broader classifications.
When considering imports or exports, remember that items like badminton rackets or other racquet sports equipment would not fall under this HS-6, as they have their own specific codes.
