Chapter 85 — Electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof; sound recorders and reproducers; television image and sound recorders and reproducers, parts and accessories of such articles → Heading 8541 — Semiconductor devices (e.g. diodes, transistors, semiconductor based transducers); including photovoltaic cells assembled or not in modules or panels, light-emitting diodes (LED) assembled with other LEDs or not, mounted piezo-electric crystals
What is the HTS code for solar panels? The US HTS heading is 8541 (Semiconductor devices (e.g. diodes, transistors, semiconductor based transducers); including photovoltaic cells assembled or not in modules or panels, light-emitting diodes (LED) assembled with other LEDs or not, mounted piezo-electric crystals). Select the specific 10-digit code above that best describes your goods.
What is the difference between an HS code and HTS code? HS codes are the global 6-digit system set by the WCO. The US extends these to 10-digit HTS codes for import classification and duty purposes.
Where can I verify this HTS code? Always confirm with the official USITC HTS database or a licensed customs broker.
