HS code for Stainless steel water bottle, vacuum insulated
HS 2022Destination USConfidence 0.92Vacuum flasks and other vacuum vessels, complete; parts thereof other than glass inners
Section XX: Miscellaneous manufactured articles · Chapter 96: Miscellaneous manufactured articles · Heading 9617: Vacuum flasks and other vacuum vessels, complete; parts thereof other than glass inners
Why this code
Heading 9617 covers vacuum flasks and other vacuum vessels, complete. The product is a double-wall vacuum-insulated drinking bottle for keeping beverages hot or cold, which is a complete vacuum vessel. Section XV Note 1(m) and Chapter 96 Note 1 do not exclude it. Heading 7323 covers steel household articles generally, but 9617 describes this article more specifically, so GRI 3(a) favours 9617. The steel grade, capacity and closure details do not change the subheading, since 961700 is the only subheading.
Rules applied: GRI 1, GRI 3(a), Section XV Note 1(m), Chapter 96 Note 1.

| Code | Description | Why not |
|---|---|---|
| 7323.93 | Table, kitchen or other household articles and parts thereof, of iron or steel; iron or steel wool; pot scourers and scouring or polishing pads, gloves and the like, of iron or steel > Other > Of stainless steel | Heading 7323 covers general stainless steel household articles, but vacuum vessels are specifically provided for in 9617, which is more specific under GRI 3(a). |
| 7310.29 | Tanks, casks, drums, cans, boxes and similar containers, for any material (other than compressed or liquefied gas), of iron or steel, of a capacity not exceeding 300 l, whether or not lined or heat-insulated, but not fitted with mechanical or thermal equipment > Of a capacity of less than 50 l > Other | Heading 7310 covers containers not fitted with thermal equipment. A double-wall vacuum vessel is specifically described in 9617, so the general container heading does not apply. |
| 7309.00 | Reservoirs, tanks, vats and similar containers for any material (other than compressed or liquefied gas), of iron or steel, of a capacity exceeding 300 l, whether or not lined or heat-insulated, but not fitted with mechanical or thermal equipment | Heading 7309 applies only to containers over 300 l, and this bottle is a small drinking vessel. |
US Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTSUS) line for US
Vessels > Having a capacity not exceeding 1 liter
Confidence 0.35. The product is a complete finished vacuum-insulated bottle, so it falls under the vessels line rather than parts; capacity is not stated, so the choice among the capacity bands is uncertain, and the smallest band is taken as the default for a typical personal drinking bottle, with low confidence.
