HS Code for Prams
HS code 8715.00 is the dedicated classification for baby carriages and their associated parts. This heading is part of Chapter 87, which covers vehicles other than railway or tramway rolling-stock. Prams and strollers are defined as non-motorized wheeled vehicles designed specifically for the transport of one or more infants or young children. The classification is determined by the primary function of the object: the safe conveyance of a child by an adult pusher. This code is comprehensive, covering the complete vehicle as well as individual components that are identifiable as being solely or principally for use with such carriages. Whether the frame is made of lightweight aluminum for a modern stroller or heavy steel for a traditional pram, the classification remains 8715.00. The inclusion of accessories like hoods, baskets, or rain shields does not change the classification if they are imported with the carriage as a complete unit.

Common Misclassification
Prams are often misclassified under 9503.00 if they are intended for dolls (toys). Another common error is 9401, which covers car seats; while car seats can sometimes be attached to a stroller frame (travel systems), the seat itself is classified as furniture/seating. Specialized wheelchairs for disabled children are classified under 8713 rather than 8715.
