Okay, let's break down these HS codes for your "WALL LAMP" declarations. I'll provide a structured analysis, focusing on the HS code structure, potential issues, and recommendations.
Understanding HS Codes: A Quick Refresher
HS codes (Harmonized System codes) are internationally standardized product codes used for customs classification. They're crucial for determining import duties and taxes. The first 6 digits are generally standardized globally, while the last digits can vary by country.
Here's a breakdown of each HS code provided, with analysis and recommendations:
1. 8539.29.30.60 – Other Filament Lamps
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment.
- 39: Lamps and lighting fittings.
- 29: Other filament lamps (excluding UV/IR).
- 30: Specific subcategory for other filament lamps.
- 60: Further specification.
- Tax: Base 0.0%, Additional 7.5%, Post 2025.4.2 Additional 30% (Total 37.5%).
- Comment: This code seems appropriate for traditional incandescent or halogen wall lamps.
2. 8539.52.00.91 – LED Lamps
- 85: Electrical machinery and equipment.
- 39: Lamps and lighting fittings.
- 52: Light-emitting diode (LED) light sources.

- Comment: This code is likely for the metal frame or housing of the wall lamp, if it's being declared separately from the light source. Important: If the metal part is integral to the lamp's function and sold with the light source, it should not be declared separately.
4. 7418.10.00.25 – Tableware of Copper Alloys (Brass)
- 74: Copper and articles thereof.

Important Recommendations:
- Material Composition: The primary material of the lamp dictates the HS code. If it's mostly metal, use the metal code. If it's wood, use the wood code, etc.
- Integral Parts: Do not declare the metal frame/housing separately if it's an integral part of the lamp and sold as one unit.
- LED vs. Other: Clearly identify if the lamp uses LED technology.
- 2025.4.2 Tariff Changes: Be aware of the tariff changes coming into effect on April 2, 2025.
- Certifications: Depending on the destination country, you may need certifications (e.g., CE, RoHS, UL) for electrical products.
- Consult a Broker: For complex cases or large shipments, it's highly recommended to consult a customs broker. They can provide accurate classification and ensure compliance.
- Provide Detailed Information: When declaring, provide a detailed description of the lamp, including materials, dimensions, and intended use.
To help me refine this further, could you tell me:
- What is the primary material of the wall lamps you are importing?
- Are they LED lamps or a different type of light source?
- What country are you importing to? (Regulations vary.)
