U.S. exports of flat panel display modules (other, with drivers or controls) (HS 852499) totaled $4.5M in July 2026.
Importers of Flat Panel Display Modules (Other, with Drivers or Controls) paid $328K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 24% on $1.4M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Flat Panel Display Modules (Other, with Drivers or Controls) imports of $2.4M in July 2026 ran 14% above the year-to-date monthly average of $2.1M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataFlat panel display modules incorporating driver or control circuits but using technologies other than LCD or OLED — such as electroluminescent, plasma, or advanced micro-LED assemblies — fall into this residual classification. China leads US imports under this heading, with Thailand and Taiwan also among the top sources. The US schedule includes two 10-digit lines, 8524990000 and 8524991000, and importers must affirmatively establish that the goods are neither LCD nor OLED before using this heading. Chinese-origin units are subject to Section 301 tariffs, a factor that makes accurate technology identification and origin documentation especially consequential for cost planning.

The US schedule lists 8524990000 and 8524991000 under this heading. The distinction between these lines is typically based on specific product characteristics or end-use applications defined in the tariff schedule notes. Importers should consult the current HTS schedule annotations and, if necessary, request a binding ruling from CBP to confirm which line applies to their specific module type.
When a module's display technology — such as micro-LED or quantum-dot electroluminescent — does not clearly fit LCD or OLED definitions, the importer should document the technology's operating principle and compare it against the Chapter 85 subheading notes. If the technology is genuinely not covered by 852411/852412 or 852491/852492, heading 852499 is the appropriate residual classification. A binding ruling request to CBP is advisable for novel technologies to avoid reclassification risk.
