U.S. imports of vacuum cleaners with self-contained electric motor (other) (HS 850819) totaled $19.8M in April 2026, traded with 20 countries.
Importers of Vacuum Cleaners with Self-Contained Electric Motor (Other) paid $1.5M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 13% on $11.3M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataVacuum cleaners with self-contained electric motors that fall outside the 1,500 W / 20-liter thresholds of 8508.11 — including high-powered industrial-grade units and large-capacity commercial machines — are captured here under a single tariff line (8508190000). Mexico leads US imports under this heading, with Vietnam and Malaysia also prominent, and Chinese-origin goods remain subject to Section 301 tariffs. The broader power and capacity range means this heading often covers wet-dry shop vacuums, central vacuum system components, and specialty cleaning equipment alongside oversized consumer models.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Wet-dry shop vacuums with a self-contained electric motor that exceed the 1,500 W or 20-liter thresholds of 8508.11 generally classify under 8508.19. If the unit is designed primarily for industrial rather than domestic use, classification under a different machinery heading could be argued, but CBP has generally treated motor-driven suction cleaners as 8508 goods regardless of the environment in which they are used.
The NESOI (not elsewhere specified or included) designation in 8508.19 means it functions as a catch-all for self-contained electric motor vacuum cleaners that do not meet both the power (≤1,500 W) and capacity (≤20 L) conditions of 8508.11. If a unit exceeds either threshold, it defaults to 8508.19. Importers should document both the rated wattage and the receptacle volume to support the classification.
