Last updated: April 2026 dataMaterial composition drives the tariff-line breakout across this heading's eleven 10-digit codes, which distinguish pipes and bowls of wood or root (including roughly shaped manufacturing blanks at 9614002100), clay, glass, plastics, and other materials, as well as cigar and cigarette holders of metal and their parts. China leads US imports broadly, while Italy is a notable source for premium briar and artisan pipes, and Ireland contributes a recognized tradition of meerschaum and clay pipe production. Importers of wooden pipe blanks should be aware that USDA APHIS phytosanitary requirements may apply depending on the wood species and processing state of the material.

Yes. Roughly shaped blocks of wood or root intended for pipe manufacturing have their own dedicated line (9614002100), separate from finished pipes and pipe bowls of wood or root (9614002500). The distinction matters because the duty rate and any applicable trade-remedy exposure may differ between the blank and the finished article.
Potentially. While glass pipes and pipe bowls classify under 9614002810 as smoking articles, CBP and other agencies may scrutinize items that could be considered drug paraphernalia under the Controlled Substances Act. Importers should ensure that goods are clearly documented as tobacco smoking pipes and consult a licensed customs broker if there is any ambiguity about intended end use.
