U.S. imports of non-brass wind musical instruments (woodwinds, organs, accordions, etc.) (HS 920590) totaled $9.4M in April 2026, traded with 33 countries.
Importers of Non-Brass Wind Musical Instruments (Woodwinds, Organs, Accordions, etc.) paid $1.1M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 15% on $7.8M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataAmong the most classification-complex headings in Chapter 92, this subheading spans woodwinds (clarinets at 9205904020, saxophones at 9205904040, flutes and piccolos at 9205904060), keyboard pipe organs (9205901200), accordions and piano accordions (9205901500, 9205901600, 9205901800), mouth organs (9205901900), bagpipes (9205902000), and a residual catch-all (9205906000). China and Indonesia dominate volume, particularly for student woodwinds and accordions, while Japan and Italy supply professional-grade instruments in their respective categories. Importers must select the correct 10-digit line with care, as misclassification between, for example, a clarinet and a generic woodwind NESOI line can affect duty liability and trade-remedy exposure.

Despite being made of brass, saxophones are classified as woodwind instruments for HTS purposes because they use a reed mouthpiece. Under this subheading, saxophones enter under 9205904040, not under the brass-wind heading 920510.
Piano accordions, which use piano-style keys on the melody side, are classified under 9205901500, while other accordions and similar free-reed instruments fall under 9205901600 or 9205901800. The distinction matters because each line may carry different Section 301 exposure depending on country of origin; importers should verify the current status for their specific instrument type.
