Overview
HTS code 9401.79.00.02 specifically classifies infant walkers. These are wheeled devices designed to support an infant learning to walk, allowing them to move around independently while being seated within the walker's frame. The primary function is to aid in mobility and exploration for very young children.
This classification distinguishes infant walkers from sibling categories that also cater to children's seating needs. For instance, highchairs and booster seats (9401.79.00.01) are designed for feeding, while bouncers with seats (9401.79.00.03) provide a bouncing motion for entertainment and comfort. Swings for children (9401.79.00.04) offer a swaying motion, and stationary activity centers (9401.79.00.06) are designed to keep infants engaged in one place with various interactive elements. Infant walkers, therefore, are uniquely characterized by their wheeled mobility feature.
As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. The classification of an infant walker under 9401.79.00.02 is definitive based on its primary design and intended use as a mobility aid for infants. It encompasses all types of infant walkers with metal frames, regardless of additional features such as trays or toys, as long as their core purpose remains to facilitate infant walking.
