Last updated: August 2026 dataGolf equipment — spanning clubs, bags, balls, and training aids — is a widely traded sporting goods category with significant import volume from Asia, where precision manufacturing of club heads, shafts, and grips is concentrated. Section 301 tariffs have affected Chinese-origin golf goods, prompting some brands to shift production to Vietnam, Taiwan, and other regional suppliers. Correct classification requires distinguishing complete clubs from parts and accessories, as club heads, shafts, and grips each carry their own tariff treatment.

No. Complete golf clubs, club heads, shafts, and grips are typically classified under separate tariff lines. Importers assembling clubs from imported components should confirm the classification of each part individually, as the duty treatment and any applicable trade-remedy exposure can differ from that of finished clubs.
Standard commercial import documentation applies: a commercial invoice with unit values and country of origin, a packing list, and a bill of lading or airway bill. If the goods are subject to Section 301 tariffs, the country of origin must be clearly established, and any first-sale or assists that affect customs value should be disclosed to the broker.
