U.S. imports of television reception apparatus not designed to incorporate a video display (HS 852871) totaled $9.1M in July 2026, traded with 19 countries.
Importers of Television Reception Apparatus Not Designed to Incorporate a Video Display paid $961K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 12% on $8.3M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataSet-top boxes, TV tuner cards, and other television reception apparatus that operate without an integrated screen are classified here, with the US schedule distinguishing units by color capability, whether they include video recording or reproducing functions, and whether they incorporate a communication function (8528712000 covers color set-top boxes with communication functions and screens above 34.29 cm). Indonesia leads US imports under this heading, followed by China and Vietnam. Goods of Chinese origin are subject to Section 301 tariffs, and FCC equipment authorization is required for any device that incorporates radio frequency transmission or reception capability.

Line 8528712000 specifically covers color television reception apparatus that incorporates a communication function — such as internet connectivity or two-way data capability — and has a screen or display exceeding 34.29 cm. Standard set-top boxes without communication functions, or those below the size threshold, fall to other lines such as 8528714000. The communication-function distinction reflects the regulatory and commercial difference between passive tuners and interactive streaming or cable gateway devices.
Not necessarily. Heading 852871 covers apparatus for receiving broadcast television signals; devices that receive video exclusively over the internet (without a broadcast tuner) may classify elsewhere — potentially under heading 8471 (ADP machines) or 8525 (transmission apparatus). The presence or absence of a broadcast RF tuner is the key technical fact. Importers of streaming sticks, smart TV modules, or hybrid devices should seek a binding ruling from CBP given the classification complexity.
