HARDWIRE KIT HS Code Classification
Based on the provided reference data and the general description of "HARDWIRE KIT", here's a breakdown of potential HS code classifications. It's crucial to understand the exact composition of the kit to determine the most accurate code. A "HARDWIRE KIT" can contain various components, leading to different classifications.
Here are potential classifications, with explanations:
-
8548000000 - Electrical parts of machinery or apparatus, not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter.
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment, parts thereof.
- 48: Electrical parts of machinery or apparatus.
- 000000: General classification for unspecified electrical parts.
- Applicability: This is a broad category and could apply if the kit contains a variety of generic electrical components not fitting into more specific categories. However, it's often a "catch-all" and customs may require more detail. Total Tax Rate: 55.0%
-
8544110020 - Insulated (including enameled or anodized) wire, cable (including coaxial cable) and other insulated electric conductors, whether or not fitted with connectors; optical fiber cables, made up of individually sheathed fibers, whether or not assembled with electric conductors or fitted with connectors: Winding wire: Of copper 33 AWG (0.18 mm in diameter) and finer.
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment, parts thereof.
- 44: Insulated conductors.
- 11: Winding wire.
- 0020: Specifically for copper winding wire 33 AWG and finer.
- Applicability: If the kit primarily contains fine copper winding wire (33 AWG or smaller), this is a strong possibility. Total Tax Rate: 58.5%
-
8544110030 - Insulated (including enameled or anodized) wire, cable (including coaxial cable) and other insulated electric conductors, whether or not fitted with connectors; optical fiber cables, made up of individually sheathed fibers, whether or not assembled with electric conductors or fitted with connectors: Winding wire: Of copper 22 AWG (0.643 mm in diameter) and finer but larger than 33 AWG (0.18 mm in diameter)
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment, parts thereof.
- 44: Insulated conductors.
- 11: Winding wire.
- 0030: Specifically for copper winding wire between 22 AWG and 33 AWG.
- Applicability: If the kit primarily contains copper winding wire between 22 AWG and 33 AWG, this is a strong possibility. Total Tax Rate: 58.5%
-
7326908605 - Other articles of iron or steel: Other: Other: Other: Rods for electrical grounding.
- 73: Articles of iron or steel.
- 26: Other articles of iron or steel.
- 90: Other.
- 86: Other.
- 05: Rods for electrical grounding.
- Applicability: If the kit contains grounding rods made of iron or steel, this code applies. Total Tax Rate: 82.9%
-
7326908688 - Other articles of iron or steel: Other: Other: Other: Other Other
- 73: Articles of iron or steel.
- 26: Other articles of iron or steel.
- 90: Other.
- 86: Other.
- 88: Other.
- Applicability: This is a very broad category for iron or steel articles not specifically classified elsewhere. It's likely to require a detailed description of the components. Total Tax Rate: 82.9%
Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Component Breakdown: Provide a detailed list of all components included in the "HARDWIRE KIT" (e.g., wire gauge, connector types, material of connectors, presence of grounding rods, etc.).
- Material Verification: Confirm the material composition of all components (especially connectors and rods). Steel, aluminum, or other materials will affect the HS code.
- 2025.4.2 Tariff Changes: Be aware of the tariff changes taking effect on April 2, 2025, particularly the increased tariffs on steel and aluminum products.
- Certification: Depending on the application of the kit, specific certifications (e.g., UL listing, CE marking) may be required for import.
- Customs Ruling: If the kit's composition is complex or unclear, consider obtaining a binding customs ruling to ensure accurate classification and avoid potential delays or penalties.
