HS Code for Billiard table

Billiard tables are classified under Harmonized System (HS) code 950420. This classification falls within Chapter 95, which covers "Toys, games and sports requisites; parts and accessories thereof." Specifically, heading 9504 addresses "Articles for funfair, table or parlour games, including pintables, billiards, special tables for casino games and automatic bowling alley equipment." Subheading 950420 is precisely designated for "Billiard articles and accessories of all kinds." A billiard table, being the primary equipment for playing billiards, directly aligns with this description. This specific categorization ensures that items designed for the game of billiards are uniformly classified, distinguishing them from general furniture or other types of games.

Common Misclassification

A common misclassification for billiard tables involves HS code 9403, which covers "Other furniture and parts thereof." While a billiard table is a piece of furniture, its primary function as an article for a specific game places it more appropriately in Chapter 95, which takes precedence due to its specificity for games and sports requisites. HS code 950490, for "Other articles for funfair, table or parlour games," might also be considered, but 950420 is more precise as it explicitly covers "Billiard articles and accessories of all kinds." Furthermore, 950430, for "Game consoles and machines, other than those of subheading 9504.20," is incorrect as it refers to electronic or arcade games, not physical tables for traditional billiards.
