U.S. imports of electromechanical domestic appliances with self-contained electric motor (other) (HS 850980) totaled $116.6M in April 2026, traded with 35 countries.
Importers of Electromechanical Domestic Appliances with Self-Contained Electric Motor (Other) paid $17.1M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 15% on $117.0M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataFloor polishers, kitchen waste disposals, electric can openers, electric toothbrushes, and a range of domestic humidifiers — evaporative, ultrasonic, and other types — all share this heading, which spans ten 10-digit tariff lines reflecting the product diversity. China is the overwhelmingly dominant supplier, with Vietnam and Thailand also notable sources. The inclusion of electric toothbrushes (8509805045) alongside humidifiers and floor polishers illustrates how broadly the 'electromechanical domestic appliance' concept is applied, and importers should verify that personal-care devices are not more specifically classifiable under heading 8510 before defaulting to this heading.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The US schedule separates humidifiers into evaporative (8509805050), ultrasonic (8509805070), a general electric humidifier line (8509805060), and a residual NESOI humidifier line (8509805080). The operating mechanism — whether the unit uses a wick and fan, ultrasonic vibration, or another method — determines which line applies. Importers should obtain technical specifications confirming the humidification technology to support the correct 10-digit classification.
Heading 8510 covers shavers, hair clippers, and hair-removing appliances with self-contained electric motors. Electric toothbrushes are not shavers or hair-removing devices, so they do not belong in 8510. CBP classifies electric toothbrushes under 8509.80 (specifically 8509805045), treating them as electromechanical domestic appliances. This classification is well-established, but importers of combination oral-care devices with novel functions should confirm with a customs broker.
