Heading 8212 — Razors and razor blades; (including razor blade blanks in strips)

Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 821290 when importing or exporting razors and their parts that aren't specifically categorized elsewhere in heading 8212. For example, this code applies to a shipment of razor blade parts that are not complete blades but are essential for razor assembly.
This code is distinct from HS-6 821291, which covers safety razors and their parts. If you're dealing with disposable razors, you would look at HS-6 821292 instead. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for proper classification and compliance.
The 821290 line specifically includes parts for razors that do not fall under the more defined categories of safety razors or disposable razors. This can include components like non-blade parts, handles, or other accessories used in razor assembly.
When classifying your products, consider the specific use and design of your items. For example, if you have a shipment of razor handles that are not sold with blades, HS-6 821290 is the appropriate code.
