Overview
Category 8715.00.00 encompasses baby carriages, commonly known as strollers, designed for the transportation of infants and young children. This classification includes a wide range of wheeled conveyances intended for this purpose, irrespective of their specific design or folding mechanisms. The scope is strictly limited to these specialized child-transport devices, distinguishing them from other forms of transportation.
This category is situated within Section XVII, specifically Chapter 87, which deals with vehicles. While Chapter 87 covers a broad spectrum of vehicles, 8715.00.00 is distinct from other vehicle categories such as passenger automobiles (Chapter 8703) or bicycles (Chapter 8712), as its primary function is the exclusive transport of babies and very young children. It also differs from general furniture categories that might include seating for children but lack the specific mobility and safety features inherent to a baby carriage or stroller.
Further subdivision within this category provides for specific classification of the goods. Subcategory 8715.00.00.20 is dedicated to the finished baby carriages and strollers themselves, encompassing the complete assembled units. Conversely, subcategory 8715.00.00.40 is designated for parts and accessories that are specifically designed for use with these baby carriages and strollers. This distinction allows for the precise accounting of both the complete products and their constituent components.
