Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If semiconductor varactor diodes
Voltage-variable diodes (varactors) classify as diodes under 8541, not mechanical caps.
Not sure which classification is right?
The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right HTS code — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Clarify mechanical vs. varactor (semiconductor) to stay in 8532.30
• Provide linearity curves for voltage tuning validation
