Last updated: May 2026 dataServing as the residual catch-all for radio reception equipment not combined with sound recorders or clocks, this heading captures a notably diverse product range — from infant nursery monitor systems (8527991000) to aviation-excluded radio receivers (8527993060) and general-purpose radiobroadcast reception apparatus (8527994000). Vietnam leads US imports under this heading, followed by Malaysia and Japan, with China also a significant source. The inclusion of infant nursery monitors alongside professional and consumer radio receivers means that product-specific safety and FCC authorization requirements can vary substantially across the five tariff lines.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Nursery monitors (8527991000) are explicitly broken out because they combine a transmitter and receiver in a consumer safety context, distinguishing them from standard radio receivers. Beyond customs classification, these products must comply with FCC Part 15 rules for unlicensed transmitters, and importers should confirm FCC equipment authorization before entry.
Line 8527993060 covers radio receivers specifically designated as not for use in civil aircraft, which typically requires documentation or product markings confirming the unit is not FAA/ICAO-certified aviation equipment. Units without that restriction generally fall to 8527994000 or the residual 8527995030. The distinction matters because civil-aircraft avionics follow a separate classification path under heading 8526.
