Last updated: August 2026 dataSaddles for bicycles and other cycles enter under a single US 10-digit line, 8714950000, covering seats for vehicles of headings 8711 through 8713. Taiwan leads supply, with Italy a notable source of premium performance and ergonomic saddles — Italian brands such as Selle Italia and Fizik are widely traded in the specialty cycling segment. China and Vietnam supply the volume tier. Saddle classification hinges on the intended vehicle: a saddle designed for a bicycle classifies here, while one designed for a motorcycle or moped would fall under a different heading, making vehicle-type documentation important for mixed shipments.

The commercial invoice and packing list should reference the intended vehicle type, supported by the manufacturer's product specification sheet or catalog page identifying the saddle as designed for pedal cycles. If a saddle model is sold for both bicycle and motorcycle use, CBP will look to the essential character and primary design intent to determine the correct heading.
No. Heading 871495 and its single US tariff line 8714950000 do not subdivide by cover material. Leather, synthetic, or gel-padded saddles all classify at the same line provided they are designed for bicycles or other cycles. Material may, however, affect valuation or country-of-origin determinations if the cover and base are manufactured in different countries.
