Last updated: April 2026 dataFootballs (9506624040), soccer balls (9506624080), basketballs (9506628020), and volleyballs (9506628040) each have dedicated 10-digit lines within this heading, with a residual line (9506628060/9506629000) capturing other inflatable balls not elsewhere specified. Vietnam leads US imports in this heading, with Pakistan a significant source particularly for hand-stitched soccer balls โ a manufacturing method that has long defined Pakistan's role in the global ball trade. Chinese-origin inflatable balls are subject to Section 301 tariffs, which has contributed to the shift toward Vietnamese and other Southeast Asian sourcing.

No. Heading 950662 is specifically limited to inflatable balls โ those designed to be inflated with air or gas. Foam-filled, gel-filled, or solid rubber balls that are not inflatable classify under heading 950669 (balls other than golf, tennis, and inflatable balls) or another applicable heading depending on construction.
Both classify under 9506624080 as soccer balls regardless of size or grade, provided they are inflatable and designed for soccer. Promotional mini balls and full-size match balls share the same tariff line. However, if a mini ball is so small or differently constructed that it functions as a toy rather than a sports article, CBP could potentially reclassify it under Chapter 95 toy provisions โ product documentation clarifying intended use is advisable.
