What decides the code
A power bank with a lithium-ion cell is classified as an electric storage battery under heading 8507, in subheading 8507.60.00.90.
- The power source is a lithium-ion cell, which places the article in heading 8507 as an electric storage battery.
- The article stores and supplies electric power from a rechargeable battery, so it is classified by battery type, not by the device it charges.
- Lithium-ion chemistry leads to subheading 8507.60, and the residual line 8507.60.00.90 covers power banks not named elsewhere in the subheading.
Common mistakes
- Classifying a power bank under 8504.40 as a static converter is wrong because the article stores energy in a battery rather than only converting current.
- Classifying it under 8543.70 as an electrical machine with an individual function is wrong because heading 8507 covers electric storage batteries specifically.
- Classifying it under 8471.30 as a portable data processing machine is wrong because a power bank has no data processing function.
