Alternative Classifications

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

8539.51.00Higher: 35% vs 17.5%

If rated for voltages exceeding 100V

Voltage threshold determines subheading; lamps over 100V shift to 8539.51 for other filament lamps excluding UV/IR.

9405.41.60Higher: 41% vs 17.5%

If incorporating a light fixture or luminaire assembly

LED bulbs with integrated housings or diffusers become ceiling/wall fixtures under Chapter 94 lighting fittings.

8541.41.00Higher: 25% vs 17.5%

If imported as bare LED chips without lamp housing

Unassembled LED diodes or semiconductors classify as photosensitive devices rather than complete light sources.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify the bulb's rated voltage does not exceed 100V with test reports to avoid reclassification to higher voltage subheadings

Include CE marking or equivalent safety certifications (UL, ETL) as documentation to prove compliance with electrical safety standards
