Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "85" represent electronic devices and their components.

Specifically, this chapter includes the following main categories:

• Electronic tubes and semiconductor devices: including vacuum tubes, diodes, transistors, integrated circuits, etc.
• Electronic components: such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, transformers, connectors, etc.
• Electronic circuit boards: including printed circuit boards, hybrid circuit boards, etc.
• Electronic devices: including radio receivers, television receivers, tape recorders, cameras, computers, telephones, fax machines, radars, navigation instruments, industrial automation equipment, medical electronic devices, etc.
• Cables and insulated wires: including various types of cables, fiber optic cables, insulated wires, etc.

Reason for classification:

The establishment of the "85" chapter is to unify the management and classification of all products related to electronic technology, facilitating international trade statistics and customs supervision. With the rapid development of electronic technology, electronic devices are increasingly widely used in modern society, so establishing a dedicated chapter for classification is of great significance.

In summary, if your product is related to electronics or contains electronic components, it is likely to fall under the HS code "85" chapter.

The first four digits of the HS code: 8537

Classification description:

Panels, panels, control consoles, tables, cabinets, and other bases equipped with two or more devices from chapters 8535 or 8536, used for power control or power distribution, including those that combine instruments or devices from chapter 90 and numerical control devices, excluding switching devices from chapter 8517.

The six-digit explanation: HS code: 8537.10

Classification: Electrical control or power distribution panels, control consoles, tables, cabinets, or other bases equipped with two or more devices from chapters 8535 or 8536, including those that combine instruments or devices from chapter 90 and numerical control devices, excluding switching devices from chapter 8517.

Specific description: Other equipment with a voltage not exceeding 1,000 V: touch-sensitive data input devices (so-called "touch screens") without display functions, used with devices that have displays, whose function is to detect the presence and location of a touch within the display area (this sensing can be achieved through resistive, capacitive, acoustic pulse recognition, infrared, or other touch-sensitive technologies).
