7117.90.45.00 - Toy jewelry (except parts) 🖩

This HTS category, 7117.90.45.00, specifically classifies "Toy jewelry (except parts)." This designation applies to imitation jewelry designed for children, intended for play and dress-up, and not for actual ornamental use by adults. The key characteristic is its nature as a toy, often made from less expensive materials and with a focus on whimsical designs rather than fine craftsmanship or precious materials. This classification excludes individual components or parts of toy jewelry, which would be classified elsewhere.

Within the "Other" subcategory for imitation jewelry, this specific code distinguishes itself from its sibling category, 7117.90.55.00, which also covers "Other" imitation jewelry. The differentiating factor lies in the unit value. While 7117.90.45.00 is for toy jewelry valued not over 20 cents per dozen pieces or parts, the sibling category likely encompasses other types of imitation jewelry that do not meet this specific value threshold or are not explicitly defined as toys.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 7117.90.45.00 hinges on the item being identifiable as a toy jewelry item and meeting the stringent per-dozen-piece value criterion. Examples include plastic bracelets, novelty rings, or costume necklaces intended for children's play. It is crucial for importers to accurately assess the intended use and the per-dozen value of such items to ensure correct classification.
