Heading 8508 — Vacuum cleaners
Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 850870 when importing or exporting parts specifically designed for vacuum cleaners. This includes items like filters, hoses, and motors that are essential for the operation of these cleaning devices. For example, a shipment of replacement vacuum cleaner bags would fall under this code.
This code is part of heading 8508, which narrows down the broader category of electrical machinery to focus specifically on vacuum cleaners. If you were considering HS-6 850871, which covers complete vacuum cleaners, you would need to classify differently based on whether the shipment includes the entire unit or just components.
Parts classified under HS-6 850870 are integral to the functionality of vacuum cleaners. This includes not only the obvious components like motors and hoses but also smaller parts like switches and brushes, which are essential for the device's operation.
When dealing with vacuum cleaner parts, it’s important to distinguish between those that are interchangeable with multiple brands and those that are proprietary. For instance, a universal vacuum cleaner filter may be classified under this code, while a brand-specific motor might require additional documentation.
