Classification of "ELECTRIC ROCKER" under HS Codes
Based on the provided reference data, classifying "ELECTRIC ROCKER" requires careful consideration of its features. Here's a breakdown of potential HS codes, along with explanations:
1. 8509805095 – Electromechanical domestic appliances, with self-contained electric motor, other than vacuum cleaners of heading 8508; parts thereof: Other appliances: Other
- 85: Machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof. This chapter broadly covers machines and appliances.
- 09: Electromechanical domestic appliances. Specifically targets appliances used in the home.
- 80: With self-contained electric motor. This indicates the appliance has its own motor built-in.
- 50: Other appliances. This is a catch-all for appliances not specifically listed elsewhere.
- 95: Other. Further specification within the 'other' category.
- Applicability: This is the most likely HS code if the electric rocker functions as a powered appliance (e.g., with rocking motion, vibration, or other motorized features). It's designed for domestic use and has a self-contained motor.
- Tax Rate: 34.2% (Base Tariff: 4.2%, Additional Tariff: 0.0%, Post-April 2, 2025: 30% Additional Tariff).
2. 9403608010 – Other furniture and parts thereof: Other wooden furniture: Other Play yards and other enclosures for confining children
- 94: Furniture; bedding, mattresses, supportings, lamps or lighting fittings, upholstered, convertible furniture, etc.
- 03: Other furniture. This is a broad category for furniture not specifically listed elsewhere.
- 60: Other wooden furniture. This narrows down the classification to furniture made primarily of wood.
- 80: Other. Further specification within the 'other' category.
- 10: Play yards and other enclosures for confining children.
- Applicability: If the electric rocker is primarily marketed and designed as a seat/enclosure for babies or young children, and is constructed mainly of wood, this HS code may be appropriate.
- Tax Rate: 55.0% (Base Tariff: 0.0%, Additional Tariff: 25.0%, Post-April 2, 2025: 30% Additional Tariff).
3. 9401692010 – Seats (other than those of heading 9402), whether or not convertible into beds, and parts thereof: Other seats, with wooden frames: Other: Bent-wood seats Household
- 94: Furniture; bedding, mattresses, supportings, lamps or lighting fittings, upholstered, convertible furniture, etc.
- 01: Seats. Specifically targets seating products.
- 69: Other seats, with wooden frames. Narrows the classification to seats constructed with a wooden frame.
- 20: Other. Further specification within the 'other' category.
- 10: Bent-wood seats Household.
- Applicability: If the electric rocker is primarily a seat with a bent-wood frame and is intended for household use, this HS code could be considered.
- Tax Rate: 55.0% (Base Tariff: 0.0%, Additional Tariff: 25.0%, Post-April 2, 2025: 30% Additional Tariff).
Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Material Composition: The primary material of the rocker (wood, metal, plastic, fabric) is crucial. If it's predominantly wood, codes under 9403 are more likely. If it's a complex electromechanical device, 8509 is more appropriate.
- Functionality: Is it primarily a seat, or is the electric function the dominant feature?
- Target Market: Is it specifically marketed for babies/children?
- Detailed Product Description: A very precise description of the rocker's features, materials, and intended use is necessary for accurate classification.
- Certification: Depending on the final HS code, you may need to provide certifications related to product safety (e.g., for children's furniture) or electrical safety.
- Post-April 2, 2025 Tariffs: Be aware of the increased additional tariffs coming into effect on April 2, 2025.
- Consultation: It is highly recommended to consult with a customs broker or relevant authority to confirm the correct HS code for your specific product. Incorrect classification can lead to delays, penalties, and unexpected costs.
