7117.90.10.00 - Necklaces, valued not over 30 cents per dozen, composed wholly of plastic shapes mounted on fiber string

This HTS classification covers imitation jewelry items specifically designed as necklaces. These necklaces must meet two key material and value criteria: they are composed entirely of plastic shapes strung together on fiber string, and their value does not exceed 30 cents per dozen. This precise specification ensures that only low-cost, predominantly plastic necklaces fall within this particular sub-classification, distinguishing them from other forms of imitation jewelry.

As this is a leaf node within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is determined solely by meeting the defined characteristics of the product. Importers and exporters should pay close attention to the precise definition of "plastic shapes," "fiber string," and the "valued not over 30 cents per dozen" threshold to ensure accurate declaration and avoid misclassification. This detailed description aims to capture a very specific segment of the imitation jewelry market characterized by inexpensive, mass-produced plastic necklaces.
