Last updated: July 2026 dataLighting strings designed for Christmas tree decoration and engineered exclusively for LED light sources are classified here, distinct from non-LED holiday strings under 940539. Cambodia leads US supply for this heading — a notable shift from the China-dominant pattern seen in most lighting categories — with the Philippines and China also among the top sources. The US schedule distinguishes miniature LED sets (9405310010) from other LED Christmas tree lighting sets (9405310040), a split that reflects differences in bulb size and string configuration relevant to product specifications and retail labeling.

The miniature designation generally refers to small-bulb configurations — typically the compact LED lenses used on traditional fairy-light or rice-light strings — as opposed to larger-format LED bulbs such as C7, C9, or globe styles. Importers should reference bulb diameter and string specifications in product documentation to support the correct 10-digit line selection.
While there is no single federal import permit for decorative lighting strings, these products are subject to voluntary and mandatory safety standards enforced by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Many retailers and major buyers require UL or ETL certification. Importers should ensure products meet applicable electrical safety standards before shipment to avoid detention or recall exposure.
