Last updated: August 2026 dataChest freezers with a lid-opening, top-access design and capacity up to 800 liters enter under a single US tariff line (8418300000), making the 800-liter capacity ceiling the critical classification boundary. China is the dominant supplier, with Indonesia and Italy as secondary sources. Units from China are subject to Section 301 tariffs, and the heading's single-line structure means there is no volume-based sub-bracket — the entire capacity range is treated uniformly. DOE energy conservation standards for residential freezers apply to units sold in the US market, so importers should confirm compliance certification before shipment.
