Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 853922 when importing or exporting electric filament lamps with a power not exceeding 200W and a voltage exceeding 100 volts, excluding tungsten halogen types. For example, a shipment of 150W incandescent light bulbs would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers filament lamps, which are commonly used in residential and commercial lighting. It's important to distinguish this from HS-6 853921, which includes tungsten halogen lamps—these have different specifications and applications.
If you're dealing with electric lamps that operate at higher voltages but lower wattages, this HS-6 line is your go-to. However, if your products are ultra-violet or infra-red lamps, you would need to look at different classifications under the same heading.
When classifying your products, ensure they meet the criteria of power and voltage set for this HS-6. Misclassification can lead to delays or additional duties, so it's crucial to verify specifications before shipping.
