Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for rated voltage >1,000V
Relays designed for higher voltage circuits shift to 8536.41 regardless of contact current rating.
If contacts rated 10A or greater
Higher contact current rating moves to the specific subheading for >10A relays.
If imported as complete motor vehicle part assembly
When integrated into finished automotive parts, classified by end-use rather than as standalone relay.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify contact rating and voltage specs in technical datasheets to confirm <10A classification under 8536.49
• Include automotive qualification certificates (e.g
• AEC-Q100) for compliance with US safety standards
• Avoid misclassification as power relays (>10A) which fall under 8536.49.0060; check coil and contact specs
