9505.10 - Articles for Christmas festivities and parts and accessories thereof:

This HTS category, 9505.10, specifically encompasses articles and accessories designed and intended for Christmas festivities. This includes a wide array of decorative items, ornaments, and other paraphernalia used to celebrate the Christmas holiday season. The defining characteristic is their exclusive or primary use in Christmas-related celebrations, distinguishing them from general decorative items or items for other types of festivities.

While the broader heading 9505 covers a range of entertainment articles, 9505.10 narrows the focus to Christmas-specific goods. Its sibling category, 9505.90, covers "Other" festive, carnival, or entertainment articles not falling under the more specific subheadings, such as those for Christmas or other specific holidays. Therefore, items intended for Diwali, Easter, or Halloween, for instance, would likely be classified under 9505.90, whereas Christmas-themed items are directed here.

Within this category, further subdivisions clarify the classification of specific Christmas items. For example, "Christmas ornaments" forms a distinct subgroup, indicating that items primarily intended for decoration of Christmas trees or settings fall here. More specifically, "Nativity scenes and figures thereof" are identified as a subcategory, recognizing the unique and culturally significant nature of these religious depictions for Christmas. The existence of these subcategories allows for more precise classification based on the specific nature and purpose of the Christmas festivity article.
