Last updated: April 2026 dataElectrothermic domestic appliances not elsewhere specified — a residual category that captures products such as electric rice cookers, slow cookers, air fryers, electric skillets, and similar heat-generating household devices — are consolidated into a single tariff line (8516790000). China is the primary source, with Vietnam and Mexico also supplying this category. Because this is a catch-all heading, classification disputes often arise when a product could plausibly fit a more specific electrothermic subheading; importers should confirm that no dedicated heading (such as those for coffee makers, toasters, or microwave ovens) applies before defaulting here. Section 301 tariffs apply to goods of Chinese origin.

Classification should follow GRI 1 — the specific heading that most precisely describes the article takes precedence over a residual 'not elsewhere specified' heading. For example, an electric coffee maker belongs under 851671 and a toaster under 851672 even if they are electrothermic. Only after confirming no specific heading applies should an importer classify under 851679. A licensed customs broker or a binding ruling request from CBP can resolve ambiguous cases.
Yes, in most cases. Air fryers and electric pressure cookers lack a dedicated HTS heading and are generally classified under the electrothermic domestic appliances NESOI heading (8516790000), provided they are designed for household use. Importers should verify that the product's heating mechanism is electrothermic (resistance-based) rather than induction-based, which could point to a different classification.
