8510 — Shavers, hair clippers and hair removing appliances, with self-contained electric motor
Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 8510 when importing electric shavers, hair clippers, or hair removing appliances that have a self-contained electric motor. For instance, if you're bringing in a rechargeable electric shaver, this is the code to consider.
When deciding between the subheadings, note that HS-6 851010 is specifically for shavers, while HS-6 851020 covers hair clippers. If your product is a multi-functional device that can shave and clip, you may need to evaluate its primary function to select the correct code.
If your product is a hair-removing appliance, use HS-6 851030. This line is distinct from hair clippers and shavers, focusing on devices like electric epilators. Ensure you understand the specific use of your appliance to avoid misclassification.
For parts related to these appliances, HS-6 851090 applies. This includes replacement blades or motors for shavers and clippers. If you’re importing components rather than complete devices, this is the appropriate code.
