Overview
HTS code 9505.10.50 encompasses a broad range of articles specifically intended for Christmas festivities that are not made of plastic. Unlike the sibling category 9505.10.40, which exclusively covers plastic Christmas festive articles, this classification is for those made from other materials such as wood, fabric, paper, metal, or glass. The defining characteristic is their specific use in celebrating Christmas, including decorations, ornaments, and other items that contribute to the festive atmosphere of the holiday.
This category serves as a residual grouping for non-plastic Christmas festive articles not specifically defined elsewhere within the 9505.10.50.xx subheadings. The purpose of this structure is to ensure accurate classification based on the material composition and intended use, allowing customs officials to differentiate between various types of Christmas decorations and related goods.
The subcategories under 9505.10.50 further refine the classification based on specific types of Christmas festive articles. Subheading 9505.10.50.10 specifically identifies artificial Christmas trees, providing a distinct category for these prominent festive decorations. Subheading 9505.10.50.20, conversely, is designated for all other Christmas festive articles made from non-plastic materials that do not fall under the artificial Christmas tree classification, ensuring comprehensive coverage for the diverse array of holiday-related goods.
