Product classification
HS code for Kitchen hood: 8414.60
Hoods, ventilating or recycling hoods incorporating a fan, whether or not fitted with filters, having a maximum horizontal side not exceeding 120cm.
Classification of kitchen hood under HS 8414.60
Kitchen hoods are classified under HS code 8414.60 because they are mechanical appliances designed for the ventilation of air, incorporating a built-in fan. This specific subheading is reserved for hoods where the maximum horizontal side does not exceed 120 cm, which covers the vast majority of domestic kitchen installations. The classification falls under Chapter 84, which encompasses nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery, and mechanical appliances. The primary function of these devices is to extract or recirculate air to remove grease, smoke, and odors from a cooking environment. Whether the unit uses a charcoal filter for recycling air or a duct system for external venting, it remains within this classification as long as it features an integrated motor-driven fan. The 120 cm dimension is a critical threshold; units exceeding this size are typically considered industrial or commercial equipment and are classified elsewhere in the tariff schedule. The presence of lighting or electronic control panels does not change this classification, as the essential character is defined by the air-moving fan mechanism.

Codes often confused with 8414.60
Common mistake. Kitchen hoods are frequently confused with HS code 8414.59, which covers other types of fans. However, 8414.60 is more specific for hoods incorporating a fan. Another common error is using 8414.80, which is a residual category for other air or vacuum pumps; this should only be used if the hood exceeds the 120 cm width limit. Additionally, if a hood is imported without its fan motor, it might be misclassified as a part under 8414.90, though it should generally be classified as the complete article if it has the essential character of a hood.

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).
