Scarbrough Taggart International Ltd. 2825 Lewis Speedway, Unit 108 St. Augustine, FL 32084 RE: The tariff classification of a knee board from Vietnam. Dear Mr. Scarbrough: In your letter dated August 14, 2026, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of your client, Fento Knee Protection BV. Images were provided in lieu of a sample. The product under consideration is described as the Fento Board M2, product number F280520. It is a wedge-shaped pad that is intended to evenly distribute pressure across the knees and lower legs when the user is kneeling on it. The board features a polyurethane (PU) plastic foam upper layer that is fitted into a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) anti-static and wear resistant bottom layer. This board also includes two small magnets to allow the user to put metal items, like screws or nails, on it and keep them from rolling away. It will measure 19.3 inches (length) by 11.6 inches (width) by 2.13 inches (height). As the Fento Board M2, product number F280520, would be considered an article of plastic, and as it is not more specifically provided for elsewhere, the applicable subheading will be 3926.90.9989, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for “[o]ther articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: [o]ther: [o]ther: [o]ther.” The column one, general rate of duty is 5.3 percent ad valorem. The duties cited above are current as of this ruling’s issuance. Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided at https://hts.usitc.gov/. This ruling does not address the applicability of any additional duties, taxes, fees, exactions and/or other charges, which may apply to the goods discussed herein. This includes, but is not limited to, tariffs and other duties as provided for in Subchapter III to Chapter 99, HTSUS. Thus, for example, in addition to the classification stated above, the merchandise covered by this ruling may also need to be reported with either the Chapter 99 provision under which an additional tariff applies or one of the Chapter 99 provisions covering exceptions to such tariffs.
