Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the fuse is sold with a holder or clip as a complete assembly
Fuse holders and clips are other apparatus for protecting electrical circuits, classified under 8536.90 when presented together.
If the fuse is imported solely as a replacement part for a specific machine
Parts suitable for use solely or principally with a particular machine may fall under heading 85.38, though fuses are generally classified in 85.36.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the fuse's voltage rating (500V) and current rating (5A) are clearly stated on the packaging or technical datasheet to support classification under 8536.10.00
• Declare the fuse as a protective device for electrical circuits, not as a part of a specific machine, to avoid misclassification under Chapter 84 or 85 parts rules
• If importing in bulk, consider using a customs broker familiar with electrical goods to expedite CBSA clearance
