Last updated: August 2026 dataLawn tennis rackets are split across four 10-digit lines depending on stringing status: 9506511000 covers rackets whether or not strung (a legacy catch-all), while 9506512000 and 9506514000 separately capture strung and unstrung rackets, and 9506516000 covers parts and accessories. China is the leading supplier, with Japan and Indonesia also significant — a sourcing mix that means Section 301 exposure is a live cost consideration for Chinese-origin frames and strings. Frame material (graphite, aluminum, composite) is commercially critical but does not subdivide the tariff lines; stringing status at time of importation is the operative classification variable.

CBP will generally look at the condition of the racket itself at the time of importation. An unstrung frame packaged with loose strings is typically classified as an unstrung racket (9506514000), with the strings potentially classified separately. If the strings are already threaded through the grommets, the racket would be strung (9506512000). Retail packaging context and GRI 3 set rules may also apply.
Yes — replacement grips, overgrips, vibration dampeners, and similar accessories specifically designed for lawn tennis rackets are classified under 9506516000 as parts and accessories for lawn tennis. Generic athletic tape or dampeners not specifically designed for tennis rackets may fall under a different heading depending on their material composition.
