8422.90.04.00 - Door assemblies for the dishwashing machines of subheading 8422.11 🖩

This HTS code, 8422.90.04.00, specifically covers door assemblies designed for dishwashing machines classified under subheading 8422.11. These door assemblies are integral components of household dishwashing machines, serving the primary function of enclosing the washing chamber, preventing water leakage, and allowing for the loading and unloading of dishes. The classification emphasizes that these are parts dedicated to the dishwashing machines themselves, not complete machines or other types of cleaning equipment.

When distinguishing this category from its siblings, it's crucial to note the specificity. HTS code 8422.90.02.00 covers water containment chambers and other general parts of household dishwashing machines that incorporate such chambers. While a door assembly might indirectly contribute to water containment, its primary classification under 8422.90.04.00 is due to its distinct function as the entry and exit point. The sibling category 8422.90.06, "Other," serves as a residual category for parts of dishwashing machines not otherwise specified.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification focuses on the precise identification of door assemblies for the aforementioned dishwashing machines. Classification here would hinge on whether the component is indeed a door assembly and if it is intended for use with dishwashing machines falling under subheading 8422.11. This ensures that specialized components are appropriately categorized, reflecting their specific function and origin within the broader category of parts for dishwashing machinery.
