Last updated: April 2026 dataFerrules, runners, stretchers, canopy fabric panels, handles, and wrist loops traded separately from finished umbrellas or walking sticks fall into this parts-and-accessories heading, which serves both OEM assembly operations and the aftermarket repair trade. Classification as a 'part' rather than a finished article requires that the item be identifiable as suitable for use solely or principally with the parent goods—a determination that can be contested when components have dual-use potential. Section 301 exposure mirrors that of the finished goods for components sourced from China.

Pre-cut canopy panels identifiable by their shape and dimensions as umbrella covers are generally classifiable as parts of umbrellas rather than as textile fabric. However, if the fabric is imported in continuous lengths or standard widths without umbrella-specific cutting, it may be classified as a textile product under a separate heading. The degree of further work required and the specificity of the cut are the determining factors; a binding ruling from CBP is advisable for large-volume shipments.
Yes, umbrella frames—comprising the shaft, ribs, stretchers, and runner—are classifiable as parts of umbrellas when imported without the canopy. Importers should ensure the commercial invoice and packing list clearly describe the components, as CBP may otherwise question whether the frame constitutes an incomplete umbrella subject to a different classification.
