HS-6 · Subheading
854091
Tubes; parts of cathode-ray tubes
Heading 8540 — Thermionic, cold cathode or photo-cathode valves and tubes (e.g. vacuum, vapour, gas filled valves and tubes, mercury arc rectifying valves and tubes, cathode-ray and television camera tubes)
Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 854091 when importing or exporting parts of cathode-ray tubes, such as those used in older televisions and computer monitors. For example, if you're shipping a batch of cathode-ray tubes for repair or replacement, this is the correct code.
This code specifically covers parts of cathode-ray tubes, distinguishing them from other types of tubes like thermionic or photo-cathode valves. If you're dealing with complete tubes, you might need a different classification under HS-6 854090.
When classifying items under this heading, it's important to note that HS-6 854091 is focused on the components that make up cathode-ray tubes, which are essential for displaying images in older electronic devices. In contrast, HS-6 854092 covers other types of tubes not specifically related to cathode-ray technology.
If you're unsure whether your product falls under this code, consider the end-use and construction of the item. Parts like electron guns or phosphor screens used in cathode-ray tubes would fit here, while other electronic components would not.
