Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8708.99.81Higher: 37.5% vs 35%

If imported specifically as motor vehicle parts

PCBs principally used in vehicles may classify under vehicle parts heading 8708 by use.

8537.10.91Higher: 52.7% vs 35%

If control boards with mounted power control ICs

Boards programmed and populated for motor control become control panels under 8537.

8543.70Lower: 12.6% vs 35%

If other electrical/electronic equipment parts

Automotive electronics PCBs not qualifying elsewhere go to general electrical parts.
