Last updated: April 2026 dataFasteners — including bolts, screws, nuts, and rivets — are among the most trade-remedy-exposed product groups in US import practice, with longstanding antidumping duty orders covering certain steel fasteners from multiple origins and Section 301 tariffs affecting Chinese-origin goods across many HTS subheadings. Buttons, needles, and pins occupy separate HTS chapters (primarily Chapters 56, 73, and 96) and carry their own duty structures, so accurate classification by article type and material is essential before entry. The diversity of materials (steel, brass, nylon, bone, shell) and end-uses means that a single commercial shipment described as 'fasteners and accessories' may span multiple tariff lines.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The US has maintained antidumping duty orders on certain steel fasteners — including nuts, bolts, and screws — from several countries over the years. Importers must check the current scope of active orders with the Department of Commerce and CBP's ADCVD portal, as scope rulings can determine whether a specific fastener type and steel grade falls within an order's coverage.
Decorative buttons used primarily as ornamentation on apparel are generally classified in HTS Chapter 96, while functional snap fasteners, hooks, and slide fasteners for garments fall under Chapter 83 or Chapter 96 depending on their base material and mechanism. The distinction matters because duty rates and any applicable trade-remedy exposure differ between chapters, and misclassification is a common audit finding for apparel accessory importers.
