Classification of copper bathroom fixtures under HS 7418.20

Copper bathroom fixtures, specifically sanitary ware and parts thereof, are classified under HS code 7418.20. This classification is part of the broader heading 7418, which covers household articles and their parts made of copper. Subheading 7418.20 is dedicated specifically to sanitary ware, which includes items used for personal hygiene and bathroom installations. The classification is determined by the primary material (copper or copper alloy) and the intended use of the finished article. These products are typically finished goods ready for installation. It is important to note that for an article to be classified here, copper must be the component that gives the product its essential character, even if other materials like rubber seals or plastic components are present.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
