What decides the code
A ring light is an electric luminaire fitted with LED light sources, classified under heading 9405 and reported on line 9405.42.84.40.
- The light source is LED, which places the fitting in the 9405.42 subheading for luminaires designed for use solely with LED sources.
- It is an electric luminaire and lighting fitting, so heading 9405 covers it because it is not specified elsewhere.
- The article is a finished lighting fitting rather than a part, so it takes the finished goods line 9405.42.84.40.
Common mistakes
- Classifying a ring light under 9405.41 is wrong because that subheading covers luminaires with photovoltaic light sources, not LED.
- Classifying it under 8539 is wrong because that heading covers lamps and bulbs, not a complete lighting fitting.
- Classifying it under 8543 is wrong because a ring light is a lighting fitting of heading 9405, not an electrical machine with its own function.
