Importers of Household & Toilet Articles of Plastics (Other Than Tableware/Kitchenware) paid $31.3M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 16% on $191.0M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataNursing nipples (3924900500), plastic curtains and table linens (3924901010/1050), picture frames (3924902000), child and pet safety gates (3924905610), and general hygienic or toilet articles (3924905650) all fall under this residual household plastics heading. The breadth of the heading makes correct 10-digit classification critical, as several lines carry distinct Section 301 exposure depending on country of origin. Importers should pay particular attention to the distinction between toilet articles — which may trigger FDA admissibility review for items like nursing nipples — and purely decorative or functional household goods that clear without agency review.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
CBP guidance treats toilet articles as items used in personal grooming or hygiene (e.g., soap dishes, toothbrush holders, nursing nipples), while household articles are items used in the general domestic environment. The distinction matters because some toilet articles may attract FDA scrutiny at entry, whereas most decorative or functional household goods do not.
Yes — plastic gates specifically designed for confining children or pets are provided for at the 10-digit level (3924905610) within this heading, rather than under headings for furniture or safety equipment. Confirm the material composition is predominantly plastic; composite constructions with metal frames may require a different classification analysis.
