Section XX: Miscellaneous manufactured articles · Chapter 95: Toys, games and sports requisites; parts and accessories thereof · Heading 9503: Tricycles, scooters, pedal cars and similar wheeled toys; dolls' carriages; dolls; other toys; reduced-size ('scale') models and similar recreational models, working or not; puzzles of all kinds
Why this code
A plush teddy bear is a stuffed toy representing an animal, intended for play or amusement. Heading 9503 covers toys and other toys, and the 950300 subheading is the residual 'other toys' line. Chapter 95 Note 1 does not exclude it, and it is not a utilitarian textile article under Note 1(x). The bedding heading 9404 covers stuffed furnishings such as cushions and pillows, not toys. The bear is not a made-up textile article of heading 6302. Its fibre composition does not change the heading, because heading 9503 is determined by function. GRI 1 applies.
Rules applied: GRI 1, Chapter 95 Note 1(x).

Information that would confirm the code
- Is the bear intended for children's play, or is it a collector's article, which would fall under heading 9703 and is outside the offered list?

Other
Confidence 0.50. The plush teddy bear is a toy under 9503, but the listing gives no labeling or determination of intended use by age group, so the specific children's product lines (9503000071/73) cannot be supported and the residual 'Other' line 9503000090 is taken with reduced confidence.
