Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 940521 when importing or exporting electric table, desk, or floor lamps specifically designed for LED light sources. For example, a shipment of bedside lamps that exclusively use LED bulbs falls under this code.
This code is distinct from HS-6 940529, which covers other electric luminaires not specifically designed for LED use, such as those that utilize incandescent or fluorescent bulbs. Knowing the difference can help avoid classification errors.
The 940521 classification includes products like stylish LED desk lamps, modern floor lamps, and compact bedside lamps, all designed to operate solely with LED technology. These lamps are often energy-efficient and have a long lifespan.
When classifying your products, consider the specific design and intended use. If your lamp can accommodate multiple types of bulbs, it may fall under a different subheading, such as 940529.
