Last updated: August 2026 dataServing as the residual catch-all for electric luminaires not captured by more specific subheadings, 940549 covers non-LED fittings that don't fit the portable task lamp, ceiling/wall, or holiday string categories. China is the primary supplier, with Cambodia and Vietnam also prominent; Italy and Germany represent European design-house sourcing, typically for higher-specification architectural or hospitality fixtures. With only a single 10-digit line (9405490000), classification within the heading is straightforward, but the threshold question — whether a product belongs here versus a more specific LED or non-LED subheading — requires careful review of lamp technology and fixture type.

Recessed downlights, track lighting systems, outdoor floodlights, and specialty architectural fittings that use non-LED sources (such as halogen or metal halide) and don't fit the ceiling/wall or portable lamp descriptions are typical candidates. Industrial high-bay fixtures and emergency exit luminaires also frequently land here when they lack a more specific classification home.
Italy and Germany are EU member states, and the US does not currently have a free trade agreement with the European Union, so no preferential duty rate applies based on EU origin alone. Importers sourcing high-end European luminaires should verify the applicable MFN duty rate and confirm that no antidumping or countervailing duty orders cover the specific product type.
