8418.30.00.00 - Freezers of the chest type, not exceeding 800 liters capacity

This HTS classification, 8418.30.00.00, specifically covers chest-type freezers that have a storage capacity not exceeding 800 liters. These are dedicated freezing appliances, distinct from combined refrigerator-freezers, which are classified under 8418.10.00 and feature separate external doors or drawers for both refrigeration and freezing compartments. This category also excludes upright freezers (8418.40.00.00) and furniture incorporating refrigeration or freezing equipment (8418.50.00), focusing solely on the chest configuration.

The defining characteristic for this classification is the chest design, where the appliance opens from the top, and the capacity limitation of 800 liters. This ensures that only specific sizes and forms of chest freezers are included, facilitating accurate import and export declarations. As a leaf node within the HTS structure, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the classification relies entirely on the explicit description and the physical attributes of the freezer itself, such as its chest form factor and its total internal volume.
