U.S. exports of telephone apparatus (NAICS 334210) totaled $132.3M in July 2026.
Importers of Telephone Apparatus paid $6.2M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 11% on $58.7M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Telephone Apparatus imports of $82.6M in July 2026 ran 27% above the year-to-date monthly average of $64.8M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataAt the six-digit NAICS level, 334210 captures the full output of establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing telephone handsets, cordless phones, PBX switching equipment, and related voice-terminal hardware. This is the most granular NAICS level at which Census Bureau trade statistics are typically published for this product group, making it the standard reference point for market-share analysis and competitive benchmarking in the telecom hardware sector. The category's HTS counterparts span multiple headings, and the correct mapping depends on whether the product is a complete telephone set, a switching apparatus, or a component — distinctions that carry real duty consequences.

NAICS 33421 (five-digit) and 334210 (six-digit) cover the same scope — telephone apparatus manufacturing — because there is only one six-digit industry within this five-digit group. Trade statistics published at either level reflect the same underlying data, so analysts can use either code interchangeably when querying Census Bureau trade databases.
Multifunction communications devices must be classified under the HTS heading that corresponds to their principal function, as determined by the General Rules of Interpretation and relevant chapter notes. A device marketed primarily as a telephone but capable of video conferencing may still fall under telephone apparatus headings, but a device whose primary function is data routing would likely classify elsewhere. Consulting a licensed customs broker is advisable for borderline cases.
