Frequently asked

What does 8536 cover?
Electrical apparatus for switching or protecting electrical circuits, or for making connections to or in electrical circuits (for example, switches, relays, fuses, surge suppressors, plugs, sockets, lamp-holders and other connectors, junction boxes), for a voltage not exceeding <il>1,000 V</il>; connectors for optical fibers, optical fiber bundles or cables:. This is a heading-level category with several subordinate codes — open one to see its full duty breakdown.
Where does this data come from?
Codes and MFN base rates come from the full USITC HTS 2026 Rev.11 export. Section 301/232/122 surcharge mappings are approximated pending code-level review. Every rate carries a source_url and effective_from, so you can trace it back to the controlling notice.
