Last updated: April 2026 dataActing as the residual heading for ceramic articles not captured by more specific categories — excluding technical wares, refractory goods, tableware, tiles, and other named ceramic products — this heading covers a diverse range of fired-ceramic objects whose common thread is their ceramic composition and lack of a more precise classification home. Decorative ceramic figurines, specialty ceramic components, and ceramic novelty items frequently land here. Importers should be aware that ceramic articles from China have broad Section 301 tariff exposure, and the wide product diversity within this heading makes scope determinations a recurring classification challenge.

Products that frequently fall into this residual heading include decorative ceramic figurines, specialty industrial ceramic components that don't meet the technical-use criteria of 66391, ceramic novelty items, and ceramic parts that don't fit tile, tableware, or refractory headings. The key is systematic elimination of all more specific ceramic headings before defaulting here.
A broad range of ceramic articles originating in China are subject to Section 301 tariffs, and the NES nature of this heading means the specific HTS subheading — and therefore the applicable Section 301 list — must be confirmed for each product type. Importers should verify current list coverage and check for any product-specific exclusions through the USTR database before finalizing sourcing or pricing.
