Last updated: August 2026 dataSouth Korea and China are the leading US import sources for household dishwashers, with Thailand and Germany also significant suppliers. Household dishwashers are a consumer appliance category subject to DOE energy efficiency standards and, for certain models, FTC EnergyGuide labeling requirements — compliance documentation should accompany shipments. Goods from China in this category may be subject to Section 301 tariffs, and importers sourcing from South Korea may benefit from KORUS FTA preferential treatment, making origin verification a key cost consideration.

Household dishwashers imported into the US must comply with DOE energy efficiency standards and are subject to FTC EnergyGuide labeling requirements. Importers should obtain test reports and compliance certifications from the manufacturer and ensure EnergyGuide labels are affixed before retail sale.
The classification turns on the machine's design and intended use: household-type dishwashers (8422.11) are designed for domestic use, typically with smaller capacity and standard residential connections. Commercial or industrial dishwashers — built for restaurants, hotels, or institutional kitchens with higher throughput and different utility connections — classify under 8422.19. The manufacturer's product designation and technical specifications are the primary evidence.
