ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) An article in a form of a ball (so called ‘paintball’) made of a hard gelatine shell containing water-based paint. The article is designed to be used as a projectile for a paintball gun (air gun with a nozzle velocity of 91 meters per second) during the multi-player game ‘paintball’. See images ( *1 ) . 9306 90 90 Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, note 1 (s) to Chapter 95 and by the wording of CN codes 9306 , 9306 90 and 9306 90 90 . The article is designed as a projectile for a paintball gun, which is an air gun of heading 9304 due to its considerable nozzle velocity (see Commission Regulation (EC) No 242/96 ( OJ L 31, 9.2.1996, p. 16 )). The paintball is a projectile used for shooting with air guns similar to pellets or darts. Therefore, the paintball is another kind of ammunition (see also the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes to heading 9306 , (A) (3)). Classification as a product of Chapter 95 is therefore excluded by virtue of note 1 (s) to that Chapter. Consequently, the article is to be classified under CN code 9306 90 90 as a projectile. ( *1 ) The images are purely for information.
