Sub-classifications

Commodity Code
Description

Overview

HTS Code 8903.93 encompasses vessels designed for pleasure or sports, specifically those not exceeding 7.5 meters in length, which are not rowboats or canoes. This category primarily includes smaller motorboats and other recreational craft that do not fall under the more specific classifications for rowboats, canoes, or larger vessels. The defining characteristic is their intended use for leisure activities and their relatively compact size.

This classification is distinct from its sibling, 8903.99, which broadly covers "Other" vessels for pleasure or sports not otherwise specified. While 8903.93 focuses on a specific length threshold and the exclusion of certain types of craft, 8903.99 serves as a residual category for pleasure boats and sports vessels that do not fit into any of the preceding subheadings within 8903.

Within HTS 8903.93, further distinctions are made to refine classification. The subcategory 8903.93.20 specifically addresses "Outboard motorboats," identifying those powered by an outboard motor. The remaining vessels fitting the general description of 8903.93 but not falling into the outboard motorboat category are classified under 8903.93.90.00, titled "Other." This subdivision allows for precise categorization based on propulsion and specific design features within the broader scope of smaller recreational vessels.
