ANNEX

Description of the goods Classification(CN code) Reasons
(1) (2) (3)
An unassembled article, (so-called "safety net for trampoline") comprising:
— a net with 6 snap closures,
— 6 upper metal bars with cellular plastic covering,
— 6 lower metal bars with cellular plastic covering and welded mounting brackets,
— 12 rubber bands with hooks,
— 12 screws with locking nuts.Each upper bar is to be fitted to the lower bar which is then fastened to the legs of the trampoline using the screws and locking nuts.The net is sewn into the shape of a cylinder and it comes in a size to fit a specific trampoline. The net has an entrance opening that can be closed by a zipper.The snap closures on the upper part of the net are to be fastened to the top end of the metal bars.The rubber bands with hooks are used to fasten the bottom of the net to the frame of the trampoline. 9506 91 90 Classification is determined by General Rules 1, 2 (a) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 1 (t) to Section XI, Note 3 to Chapter 95 and by the wording of CN codes 9506, 9506 91 and 9506 91 90.Given its shape and characteristics, in particular the fact that it is ready to be installed onto a specific trampoline due to the presence of the metal bars, screws, nuts, snap closures and rubber bands with hooks, the safety net is suitable for use solely with the appropriate trampoline (see Note 3 to Chapter 95). The safety net is therefore to be considered as an accessory to an article for general physical exercise of heading 9506.Classification under heading 5608 as other made up nets is excluded, as articles of Chapter 95 are excluded from Section XI (see Note 1 (t) to Section XI).The safety net for trampoline is therefore to be classified under CN code 9506 91 90 as other articles and equipment for general physical exercise, gymnastics or athletics.
