Last updated: July 2026 dataA broad catch-all heading covering components for accordions, woodwind and brass wind instruments, pipe organs, bagpipes, percussion accessories, music box mechanisms, and metronomes, among others — each with its own dedicated 10-digit line. Taiwan leads US imports under this heading, followed by China and Canada, reflecting Taiwan's strength in wind instrument manufacturing and music accessory production. The heading's breadth means classification disputes are common: importers must match each article to the most specific applicable line (e.g., woodwind parts at 9209994040, music box mechanisms at 9209993000) before defaulting to the NESOI basket.

Classification should begin with the most specific line that describes the article — for example, woodwind parts at 9209994040, pipe organ parts at 9209991600, or bagpipe parts at 9209992000. Only if no specific line applies should the importer use the residual NESOI lines. Consulting a licensed customs broker is advisable given the heading's complexity.
Under the US tariff schedule, metronomes, tuning forks, and pitch pipes are specifically classified at 9209990500 within this heading, treating them as accessories to musical instruments rather than as measuring or timing devices. This dedicated line removes ambiguity about their classification.
