Last updated: July 2026 dataSubject to Section 301 tariffs given predominant sourcing from China, electric hair clippers with self-contained motors span both consumer grooming and professional barbering markets, as well as agricultural and horticultural shearing applications. The US schedule distinguishes agricultural/horticultural clippers (8510201000) from general-purpose units (8510209000), a split that matters for classification when the same clipper body is marketed across both end uses. Importers should confirm the intended application at entry, as misclassification between the agricultural and consumer lines is a recurring audit issue.

The HTS separates clippers principally designed for agricultural or horticultural use (8510201000) from all other electric hair clippers (8510209000). Classification turns on the intended end use and design specifications — clippers marketed and designed for livestock shearing fall under the agricultural line, while those for human grooming fall under the general line. Supporting documentation such as product catalogs or technical specs can be critical if CBP questions the classification.
Yes. Electric hair clippers sourced from China are generally subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers should verify the applicable list and rate at the time of entry, as Section 301 coverage and exclusions have been revised multiple times.
