Ovens, cookers, cooking plates, boiling rings, grillers and roasters, of a kind used for domestic purposes (excluding microwaves).
Classification of electric oven under HS 8516.60
Electric ovens for domestic use are classified under HS code 851660. This classification is guided by Section XVI, Chapter 85, which covers electrical machinery and equipment. Heading 8516 specifically includes electro-thermic domestic appliances and electric space-heating apparatus. Subheading 851660 is a broad category that encompasses various cooking appliances, including ovens, cookers, and grillers, provided they are of a kind used for domestic purposes. The classification hinges on the 'domestic' nature of the product, which is typically determined by its size, capacity, and design features intended for home use rather than industrial food processing. If the oven is integrated into a larger unit that includes hobs or boiling rings, the entire unit remains under this code. This heading excludes microwave ovens, which have their own specific subheading (851650), and also excludes non-electric appliances like gas ovens, which are classified in Chapter 73. The classification is based on the heating method (electro-thermic) and the intended environment of use (household).

Codes often confused with 8516.60
Common mistake. Electric ovens are frequently confused with microwave ovens, which must be classified under HS code 851650. Another common error is using HS code 841780, which is intended for industrial or laboratory ovens; domestic units must stay in 8516. Additionally, if the oven is a gas-operated unit with only minor electrical components (like a light or timer), it should be classified under HS code 732111 rather than 851660.

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).
