LED Chandeliers and Other Electric Ceiling or Wall Lighting Fittings

The household vs. non-household distinction generally turns on the fixture's design intent and marketing: fixtures designed for residential interiors (living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms) are household; those designed for commercial, hospitality, or institutional settings are non-household. CBP may consider catalog descriptions, marketing materials, and technical specifications. The distinction affects both the applicable 10-digit line and, in some cases, the duty rate.

Material is a primary classification criterion: brass-body fixtures use lines 9405114010 (household) or 9405114020 (non-household); other base-metal fixtures use 9405116010 or 9405116020; and fixtures of other materials — including plastics, glass, or mixed materials — use 9405118010 or 9405118020. Importers should document the predominant material of the fixture body (excluding the light source and cord) to support the correct line selection.
