Okay, let's break down the HS codes and tax implications for your "DOWN LAMP" declaration. Here's a structured analysis to help you understand the classification and potential costs.
Understanding HS Codes: A Quick Guide
HS codes (Harmonized System codes) are internationally standardized product codes used for customs classification. The first 6 digits are generally consistent worldwide, while additional digits can vary by country. Here's how to interpret them:
- Chapter (First 2 digits): Broad category of goods.
- Heading (First 4 digits): More specific grouping within the chapter.
- Subheading (First 6 digits): Even more detailed classification.
- Additional Digits: Country-specific for further refinement.

Recommendations & Key Considerations:
- Primary Classification: For the lamp itself, 8539.29.30.60 (filament) or 8539.52.00.91 (LED) are the most likely codes.
- Fixture/Housing: If you're importing the lamp housing separately, 9405.49.00.00 is appropriate.
- Material: If the lamp has significant parts made of glass, aluminum, or plastic, you may need to consider those codes as well, but they would likely be for components, not the entire lamp.
- Post April 2, 2025 Tariffs: Be aware of the significant tariff increases coming into effect.
- Material Composition: Crucially, confirm the exact materials used in the lamp's construction. This will help determine the correct classification.
- Single vs. Multiple Components: If you're importing a complete lamp as a set, classify it as a whole. If importing parts separately, classify each part individually.
- Certifications: Depending on the destination country, you may need certifications (e.g., CE, RoHS, UL) for electrical safety and compliance.
To help me refine the classification further, please provide:
- Detailed description of the lamp: What is it made of? What is its primary function?
- Are you importing the complete lamp or individual components?
- What is the destination country?
