Definition and scope of subheading 8518 90

Subheading 8518 90 covers parts for devices under heading 8518, including microphones, loudspeakers, headphones, audio amplifiers and sound amplifier sets. Key part categories include loudspeaker diaphragms, voice coils, magnets, speaker grilles and enclosures, ear cushions for headphones, microphone capsules, amplifier circuit boards (PCB), audio transformers and heatsinks. The essential criterion is the part being solely or principally intended for heading 8518 equipment per Section XVI Note 2(b). Universal parts are classified under their proper headings. General-purpose permanent magnets fall under 8505. Audio cables under 8544.

Regulatory requirements

Parts under 8518 90 have limited regulatory requirements as components. RoHS 2 restricts hazardous substances. CE marking is not required for parts alone. The finished device after installation must comply with LVD, EMC and RED. CBAM does not apply. Import is subject to the UCC with EORI requirement.

Duty rates and import conditions

Current MFN duty rates should be verified in TARIC. Parts may benefit from ITA 0%. China is the main supplier. Documentation includes commercial invoice with technical description and intended use indication, transport documents, EORI number and RoHS documentation. National VAT is levied on import.

Frequently asked questions

How to classify a loudspeaker diaphragm in the CN?

Loudspeaker diaphragms solely intended for heading 8518 loudspeakers are classified under 8518 90 as parts. Universal diaphragms for multiple applications may be classified separately. Accompanying documentation should indicate the intended use.

Do audio parts require CE marking?

CE marking is not required for parts sold separately as components. However, the finished device after installation must comply with LVD, EMC and RED. RoHS 2 applies to parts.

Does CBAM apply to audio parts?

No. CBAM covers only emission-intensive sectors. Audio parts under 8518 90 fall outside CBAM scope.
