More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as an integral part of a complete MRI scanner
MRI scanners are classified in Chapter 90; if the electromagnet is presented with the scanner, the whole may be classified there.
If the item is a transformer or inductor rather than an electromagnet
Transformers and inductors are classified in heading 85.04; parts thereof fall under 8504.90.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the electromagnet is declared as a complete unit, not as a part of an MRI scanner, to avoid misclassification under Chapter 90
• Provide technical documentation showing it is an electromagnet of heading 85.05, not a medical device
• Verify whether the goods qualify for duty relief under any applicable free trade agreement
