9902.17.90 - Inflatable tetherballs, each with rope attachment (provided for in subheading 9506.99.60)

This HTS classification, 9902.17.90, specifically covers inflatable tetherballs that are equipped with a rope attachment. These items are temporarily classified under Section XXII, which pertains to special classification provisions, temporary legislation, and modifications enacted due to trade agreements or specific agricultural adjustment acts. The parenthetical reference to subheading 9506.99.60 indicates that while these goods share some characteristics with sporting and recreational equipment, they are subject to distinct temporary import restrictions.

Given that this is a leaf node within Chapter 99, it does not have further subcategories. Its purpose is to segregate these particular inflatable tetherballs for specific regulatory or tariff treatment, distinct from other items that might fall under broader sporting goods categories or general temporary import provisions. The focus here is on the unique combination of being an inflatable tetherball with an integrated rope, which triggers this specific temporary classification.
