Classification of LED table lamp under HS 9405.21

LED table lamps are classified under HS code 9405.21, a specific category for electric table, desk, bedside, or floor-standing luminaires designed for use solely with light-emitting diode (LED) light sources. This classification is based on the physical design and the intended placement of the product. The Harmonized System distinguishes between lamps that are fixed (like ceiling or wall lights) and those that are portable or standing. Because these lamps are designed to sit on a surface or stand on the floor, they fall under the 9405.2x series. The .21 suffix is a result of the 2022 HS updates, which created dedicated subheadings for LED-only fixtures to better track the global shift toward energy-efficient lighting. For a product to be classified here, it must be a finished article ready for use, containing the socket or integrated LED module, the wiring, and the structural body. This code excludes industrial lighting or specialized medical lamps, focusing instead on domestic or office furniture-style lighting that provides localized illumination.

Codes often confused with 9405.21

Common mistake. A frequent error is classifying these under 9405.11, which is for chandeliers and other electric ceiling or wall lighting. Another misclassification occurs with 9405.29, which is for table lamps that use non-LED sources like incandescent or halogen bulbs. It is critical to verify the light source type to ensure the .21 subheading is applied correctly for LED-specific models.

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).
