Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 940599 when importing or exporting lamps and light fittings made from materials other than glass or plastics, such as metal or wood. For example, consider a shipment of decorative metal table lamps or wooden floor lamps.
This code applies specifically to light fittings that do not fall under the glass or plastic categories, which are classified separately under HS-6 940510. If you have lamps with glass shades, you would use that code instead.
Items classified under HS-6 940599 can include various types of lighting solutions, such as wall sconces made from metal, or unique fixtures crafted from natural materials. Understanding the material composition is key to proper classification.
When dealing with illuminated signs or name-plates that are not made of glass or plastic, this code is also applicable. For instance, a metal sign with built-in LED lighting would fall under this classification.
