HS Code for Air mattresses

Air mattresses are classified under HS code 630640 because they are explicitly identified as "pneumatic mattresses" within the broader category of "Camping goods". Heading 6306 covers various textile articles for camping, and the subheading 630640 specifically designates pneumatic mattresses. This classification accurately reflects the product's design as an inflatable sleeping surface, typically constructed from textile materials coated or laminated with plastics, and its common use in outdoor or temporary sleeping arrangements. The direct mention of "pneumatic mattresses" ensures its precise placement within the Harmonized System, distinguishing it from other types of bedding.

Products Included

• Inflatable air beds for camping
• Portable air mattresses for temporary use
• Self-inflating camping mats (if pneumatic)
• Guest air beds designed for occasional use

Common Misclassification

A common misclassification for air mattresses can occur with HS code 940421, which covers "Mattresses of cellular rubber or plastics, whether or not covered". While some air mattresses are made of plastic, 630640 is more specific for "pneumatic mattresses" and is situated within the "Camping goods" heading. If an air mattress is clearly designed and marketed for permanent home use and not primarily as a camping or temporary item, it might be considered under 940421. However, the explicit description in 630640 generally takes precedence for inflatable mattresses. Another less common misclassification might be with HS 392690, "Other articles of plastics, n.e.c.", but this is a residual category and less specific than 630640 for pneumatic mattresses.

Are all inflatable mattresses classified under 630640?

Generally, most inflatable mattresses, being pneumatic, fall under 630640. However, the "Camping goods" context is significant.
