What determines the tariff number?
- Electric operation. Refrigerators are classified based on their propulsion method. Electrically powered cooling appliances have different HS codes than mechanically operated systems.
- Cooling capacity and design. The refrigerating capacity and whether it is a standard refrigerator, freezer combination unit, or specialized cooling device significantly affects the customs tariff classification.
- Intended use. Classification varies depending on whether the unit is a household appliance, commercial refrigerator, or specialized industrial cooling system, leading to different HS codes.
