Led flood light Hs Code

Led flood light harmonized system code

Product Overview LED flood lights classified under HS Code 940542 are high-intensity, broad-beamed illumination devices primarily designed for outdoor and large-area lighting applications. These fixtures incorporate light-emitting diode (LED) technology, characterized by energy-efficient, durable semiconductor light sources with superior luminous efficacy, typically measured in lumens per watt (lm/W). Physically, LED flood lights under this classification feature robust enclosures made from corrosion-resistant materials such as die-cast aluminum, with ingress protection ratings commonly at IP65 or higher to ensure weather resistance. Processing levels include precision optical lenses and heat dissipation systems to maintain performance and longevity. The HS Code 940542 encompasses various subcategories, including floodlights with integrated control gear, adjustable mounting brackets, and variable wattage outputs ranging from 10W to over 500W. Commercially, these products serve critical roles across food service facilities, retail environments, and industrial processing plants by providing uniform illumination, enhancing safety, and improving operational efficiency. Positioned competitively, LED flood lights offer reduced energy consumption, extended lifespan exceeding 50,000 operational hours, and compliance with international safety standards, establishing them as cost-effective lighting solutions in global markets. HS Code Classification & Trade Specifications The LED flood light falls under the Harmonized System (HS) Code 940542, with the full 6-digit structure defined as Chapter 94 (Furniture; bedding, mattresses, lamps and lighting fittings, not elsewhere specified), Heading 9405 (Lamps and lighting fittings including searchlights and spotlights), and Subheading 940542 (Other electric lamps and lighting fittings, excluding those used for motor vehicles or bicycles). Classification under 940542 is warranted due to the product’s primary function as an electric lighting fitting designed for stationary installation, distinct from portable lamps or vehicle-specific lighting equipment. Trade considerations typically involve packaging in custom-sized, shock-resistant cartons with anti-static and moisture barrier materials to preserve electronic components during transit. Shipping methods comply with standard international freight protocols, emphasizing protection against mechanical shock and electrostatic discharge. Quality standards align with IEC 60598 for luminaire safety, RoHS compliance for hazardous substances, and relevant ISO certifications for manufacturing quality management. These factors ensure conformity with World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements and facilitate seamless customs clearance, supporting accurate tariff application and regulatory compliance in import/export operations.

Led flood light Chapter Note

1.- This Chapter does not cover : (a) Pneumatic or water mattresses, pillows or cushions, of Chapter 39, 40 or 63; (b) Mirrors designed for placing on the floor or ground (for example, cheval-glasses (swing-mirrors)) of heading 70.09; (c) Articles of Chapter 71; (d) Parts of general use as defined in Note 2 to Section XV, of base metal (Section XV), or similar goods of plastics (Chapter 39), or safes of heading 83.03; (e) Furniture specially designed as parts of refrigerating or freezing equipment of heading 84.18; furniture specially designed for sewing machines (heading 84.52); (f) Lamps or light sources and parts thereof of Chapter 85; (g) Furniture specially designed as parts of apparatus of heading 85.18 (heading 85.18), of headings 85.19 or 85.21 (heading 85.22) or of headings 85.25 to 85.28 (heading 85.29); (h) Articles of heading 87.14; (ij) Dentists' chairs incorporating dental appliances of heading 90.18 or dentists' spittoons (heading 90.18); (k) Articles of Chapter 91 (for example, clocks and clock cases); (l) Toy furniture or toy luminaires and lighting fittings (heading 95.03), billiard tables or other furniture specially constructed for games (heading 95.04), furniture for conjuring tricks or decorations (other than lighting strings) such as Chinese lanterns (heading 95.05); or (m) Monopods, bipods, tripods and similar articles (heading 96.20). 2.- The articles (other than parts) referred to in headings 94.01 to 94.03 are to be classified in those headings only if they are designed for placing on the floor or ground. The following are, however, to be classified in the above-mentioned headings even if they are designed to be hung, to be fixed to the wall or to stand one on the other : (a) Cupboards, bookcases, other shelved furniture (including single shelves presented with supports for fixing them to the wall) and unit furniture; (b) Seats and beds. 3.- (A) In headings 94.01 to 94.03 references to parts of goods do not include references to sheets or slabs (whether or not cut to shape but not combined with other parts) of glass (including mirrors), marble or other stone or of any other material referred to in Chapter 68 or 69. (B) Goods described in heading 94.04, presented separately, are not to be classified in heading 94.01, 94.02 or 94.03 as parts of goods.4.- For the purposes of heading 94.06, the expression “prefabricated buildings” means buildings which are finished in the factory or put up as elements, presented together, to be assembled on site, such as housing or worksite accommodation, offices, schools, shops, sheds, garages or similar buildings. Prefabricated buildings include "modular building units" of steel, normally presented in the size and shape of a standard shipping container, but substantially or completely pre-fitted internally. Such modular building units are normally designed to be assembled together to form permanent buildings.
