U.S. exports of Yachts, Pleasure & Sport Vessels, Rowboats & Canoes (NESOI) (HS 890399) totaled $46.5M in August 2026.
Importers of Yachts, Pleasure & Sport Vessels, Rowboats & Canoes (NESOI) paid $2.0M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 7.11% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataOutboard motorboats over 7.5 meters, larger canoes and rowboats, and miscellaneous pleasure or sport vessels that do not fit the more specific length-based headings are captured here, with the US schedule further splitting outboard motorboats by hull material — metal (8903992110) and reinforced plastic (8903992120) — alongside a residual NESOI line (8903992190) and a broad pleasure-vessel catch-all (8903999100). Finland and Poland lead US imports under this heading, with Canada, Mexico, and France also present. Importers should take care that vessels not clearly fitting a more specific subheading are not defaulted here without confirming that no more precise classification applies.

NESOI ('not elsewhere specified or included') lines are a classification of last resort. An importer should work through the more specific subheadings — by vessel type (sailboat, motorboat, rowboat, canoe), length, and motor configuration — before defaulting to the residual line. Using NESOI when a more specific provision exists is a classification error that can trigger CBP penalties. A licensed customs broker should review the vessel's specifications against the full tariff schedule before filing.
Personal watercraft such as jet skis are generally classified under HTS heading 8903 as vessels for pleasure or sports, but their specific placement depends on propulsion type, length, and design. They do not typically fall under the sailboat or conventional motorboat subheadings. Importers should consult a licensed customs broker or request a binding ruling from CBP to confirm the correct 10-digit classification for a specific PWC model.
