9306.29.00.00 - Other 🖩

HTS Code 9306.29.00.00, described as "Other," encompasses all shotgun cartridges and parts thereof, as well as air gun pellets, that do not fall under the specific category of "Cartridges" (HTS 9306.21.00.00). This classification is reserved for shotgun-related ammunition and components that are not complete, loaded cartridges, or for air gun projectiles. It serves as a residual category for items that meet the broader scope of Chapter 93 but are not specifically enumerated elsewhere within the 9306.2 subheading.

For instance, this category would include components such as empty shotgun shells, wads, primers, or shot if imported separately or in a configuration not considered a complete cartridge. Similarly, air gun pellets not classified as "cartridges" would also be found here. The distinction from HTS 9306.21.00.00 hinges on the completeness and functional readiness of the item as a loaded cartridge ready for firing.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 9306.29.00.00 relies on the careful assessment of whether an item is a part, component, or projectile related to shotgun or air gun ammunition and does not constitute a complete, loaded cartridge. The principle of "ejusdem generis" (of the same kind) within the context of Chapter 93, specifically Section XIX, guides the classification of these residual items.
