HS code for OLED module: 8524.92

Flat panel display modules, whether or not incorporating touch-sensitive screens, of organic light-emitting diodes (OLED), with drivers or control circuits.

Classification of OLED module under HS 8524.92

OLED modules are classified under HS code 8524.92. This heading was introduced in recent Harmonized System updates to provide a specific home for flat panel display modules. According to the legal notes for heading 8524, these modules consist of a display panel (in this case, Organic Light-Emitting Diodes) and the necessary drivers or control circuits to operate the pixels. The classification 8524.92 is specific to OLED technology, distinguishing it from LCD (8524.91) or other display types. The logic behind this classification is that the module is more than a simple electronic component but less than a finished device like a television or computer monitor. To fall under this code, the module must not incorporate the ability to receive a broadcast signal or have the full housing of a finished monitor. These modules are widely used in smartphones, tablets, and wearable devices, serving as the primary visual interface while relying on the host device's main processor for data.

Codes often confused with 8524.92

Common mistake. OLED modules are frequently misclassified under 8529.90, which covers parts for television and radio equipment. Before the creation of heading 8524, this was common practice. Another error is using 8541.41, which is for individual light-emitting diodes. However, once the OLED is part of a display module with drivers, 8524.92 takes precedence. If the module is part of a complete monitor, it should be classified under 8528.

Top exporters and importers of HS 852492 (the code used for OLED module), 2025

In 2025, the largest exporter of HS 852492 (the code used for OLED module) in UN Comtrade data was Vietnam, with about 50% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was China, with 62% of world imports. Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. 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).
