8212.90.00.00 - Other parts 🖩

HTS code 8212.90.00.00 specifically designates "Other parts" within the broader category of razors and razor blades. This classification is reserved for any components of razors or safety razor blades that are not themselves complete razors or finished safety razor blades. This can include a wide array of items such as handles, housings, guards, or any other manufactured pieces intended for assembly into a razor or blade system, provided they are made of base metal.

This category is distinct from its siblings, 8212.10.00.00 (Razors) and 8212.20.00 (Safety razor blades), which classify the finished products. While the sibling categories encompass the fully functional razor unit or the cutting element, 8212.90.00.00 pertains solely to the individual constituent parts. Therefore, a detached handle made of base metal for a safety razor would be classified here, whereas a complete safety razor with the handle attached would fall under 8212.10.00.00.

As this classification is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification of parts under 8212.90.00.00 will hinge on their nature as components intended for use with razors or razor blades, and their composition of base metal. It is crucial for importers and exporters to correctly identify whether an item is a finished product or a component part to ensure accurate customs declarations.
