Last updated: April 2026 dataChina dominates US imports across this broad heading, which spans everything from parts for non-coin-operated game machines (9504904000, 9504904002) to chess and checkers sets packaged for retail (9504906000), bowling balls (9504909040), bowling equipment and accessories (9504909060), and a residual catch-all for arcade, table, and parlor game articles (9504909080). Mexico and Vietnam are also notable suppliers, and goods of Chinese origin in this heading are subject to Section 301 tariffs, making origin verification and first-sale valuation strategies particularly relevant for importers. Classification disputes frequently arise at the boundary between game machines and their parts, and between articles for amusement and those for sport.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
A complete, functional tabletop electronic game that does not require coin or token operation would generally be classified as a complete article under 9504909080 (articles for arcade, table, or parlor games, NESOI) rather than as a part. Parts classification under 9504904000 or 9504904002 applies to components that are not complete games in themselves. When the article is borderline, a binding ruling from CBP is advisable.
No. The US schedule separates bowling balls (9504909040) from other bowling equipment, parts, and accessories (9504909060), so importers must classify each product type individually rather than grouping all bowling goods under a single line.
