Overview

This HTS category, 9606.10.40.00, specifically classifies press-fasteners, snap-fasteners, and press-studs, along with their constituent parts and button blanks, when their value does not exceed 20 cents per dozen pieces or parts. These fasteners are designed for joining two pieces of material, commonly used in apparel, luggage, and various other textile or leather goods. The key determinative factor for classification within this code is the economic valuation per dozen units.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 9606.10.80.00, solely by the per-dozen value. While both cover identical types of fasteners and their components, 9606.10.80.00 applies to those valued at *over* 20 cents per dozen pieces or parts. Therefore, accurate valuation at the time of import is critical for correct classification between these two closely related subheadings.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS, there are no further subcategories under 9606.10.40.00. Classification within this code is definitive once the nature of the goods (press-fasteners, snap-fasteners, press-studs, or parts/blanks thereof) is confirmed and their value per dozen pieces or parts is established to be 20 cents or less.
