The US schedule separates upright brooms (9603908020) from push brooms 41 cm or less in width (9603908030) and other brooms (9603908040). The distinction is based on design and intended use: upright brooms are handled vertically for sweeping, while push brooms are designed to be pushed horizontally. Width measurement (at or under 41 cm) is the additional criterion for the push broom line. Importers should document the broom type and width on commercial invoices to support classification.
Yes. Prepared knots and tufts specifically intended for broom or brush manufacturing are explicitly included in heading 9603.90 and classified under the residual line 9603908050 when not elsewhere specified. They are not classified as raw materials or textile articles, even if made of fiber, because their preparation for broom-making is the defining characteristic. Importers of these components should retain supplier documentation confirming their intended manufacturing use.
