U.S. imports of light-emitting diodes (leds) (HS 854141) totaled $58.0M in April 2026, traded with 43 countries.
Importers of Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) paid $3.0M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 25% on $12.1M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) imports of $58.0M in April 2026 ran 18% above the year-to-date monthly average of $49.2M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataLEDs classified here are discrete semiconductor light-emitting diodes — distinct from LED-based luminaires or backlights assembled into modules — and serve as primary inputs for lighting, display, automotive, and signaling applications. Japan leads US imports under this heading, followed by China and Malaysia, reflecting a supply chain that spans both high-precision specialty LEDs and volume commodity devices. Importers should note that antidumping and countervailing duty orders have historically applied to certain LED products from China, making origin and scope analysis a routine compliance step.

Heading 854141 covers the discrete LED semiconductor device itself — the chip or packaged diode — not assembled luminaires, modules, or backlights. Once LEDs are incorporated into a lamp, fixture, or display module, classification typically shifts to other headings (e.g., Chapter 94 for luminaires or Chapter 85 for display assemblies). The key question is whether the LED is presented as a standalone component or as part of a finished lighting or display product.
Antidumping and countervailing duty orders have covered certain LED products of Chinese origin. Importers should conduct a scope analysis against the specific order language — which may reference product specifications such as chip size, wavelength, or application — before entry. A licensed customs broker or trade attorney can assist with scope rulings if the product's coverage is uncertain.
