Overview
HTS Code 9403.70.80.03 specifically classifies play yards and other enclosures designed for confining young children. These items are typically portable or collapsible structures used to create a safe, contained space for infants and toddlers to play or rest. Examples include playpens, multi-sided fabric or mesh enclosures with frames, and similar safety barriers intended for child confinement.
This category is distinguished from its siblings by its specific purpose of child confinement. While 9403.70.80.01 covers cribs, which are stationary beds for infants, and 9403.70.80.02 includes toddler beds, bassinets, and cradles, these are primarily designed for sleeping. Other sibling categories like "Other household" (9403.70.80.15) or "Office" (9403.70.80.20) refer to furniture with broader applications, not specifically child confinement.
As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 9403.70.80.03 hinges on the primary function of the enclosure: to provide a safe, contained area for children. The material of construction, often plastic or fabric with a metal or plastic frame, aligns with the broader "Furniture of plastics" classification at the parent level, but the defining characteristic for this specific code is its use in child confinement.
