Last updated: August 2026 dataGrand pianos are classified by case length — the horizontal dimension from keyboard to the tail of the instrument — with five size brackets spanning from under 152.40 cm (baby grand) to over 195.58 cm (concert grand), plus a used-instrument line (9201200005). Japan and Indonesia lead US import supply, with Germany and Austria representing the European premium segment — the latter reflecting makers such as Bösendorfer. The length-based breakpoints align broadly with the industry's own size designations (baby, parlor, semi-concert, concert), though importers must use the precise centimeter measurements rather than trade nomenclature for classification purposes.

The US tariff breakpoints (152.40 cm, 167.64 cm, 180.34 cm, 195.58 cm) correspond roughly to the industry's baby grand, parlor/medium grand, semi-concert, and concert grand designations, but the tariff classification is determined solely by the measured case length — not by the manufacturer's marketing label. Importers should use the manufacturer's technical specification for case length and not rely on trade names like 'baby grand' or 'concert grand' for classification.
Used grand pianos, classified under 9201200005, may be subject to USDA APHIS inspection for wood-boring pests and invasive species in wooden components such as the soundboard, bridges, and case. Instruments with ivory key coverings may also require documentation under CITES if the ivory was harvested before applicable cutoff dates. Importers should consult with a licensed customs broker and verify APHIS and CITES requirements before shipment.
