9306.90.00.41 - Paintballs

This HTS category, 9306.90.00.41, specifically covers paintballs, which are projectiles designed for use in paintball sports. These items are typically spherical and filled with a colored liquid or gel, encased in a breakable shell, usually gelatin or plastic. Their primary function is as ammunition for paintball markers, distinct from other munitions.

This subcategory is differentiated from its sibling category, 9306.90.00.50 "Other," which encompasses a broader range of non-military ammunition and projectiles not specifically classified elsewhere within heading 9306. While both fall under "Other ammunition and projectiles," 9306.90.00.41 provides a precise classification for the specialized nature of paintballs.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level is determined by the distinct physical characteristics and intended use of paintballs, ensuring accurate import and export declarations for this specific type of sporting ammunition.
