Paintballs (9306900041) fall under HTS 9306.90 because the HS nomenclature groups all projectiles and ammunition not elsewhere specified under this heading, regardless of lethality. The classification is based on the article's physical form as a projectile, not its military or civilian end use. Paintballs carry standard commercial duties and are not subject to ITAR controls.
Most guided missiles and their components are defense articles subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), administered by the State Department's Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC). An import license or applicable exemption is required before entry, and the articles must also be reviewed against the US Munitions Import List. Importers should coordinate with legal counsel experienced in ITAR compliance well before shipment.
