8510.90.30.01 - Parts of hair clippers to be used for agricultural or horticultural purposes

This HTS category, 8510.90.30.01, specifically classifies parts designed for hair clippers that are intended for use in agricultural or horticultural applications. This distinguishes it from general hair clipper parts by its specialized end-use. Examples of such parts could include blades or motor components that are engineered for the more robust demands of trimming animal hair in agricultural settings or managing vegetation in horticultural contexts, rather than for personal grooming.

It is crucial to differentiate this classification from its sibling, 8510.90.40.00, which covers "Other parts of hair clippers." While 8510.90.30.01 is restricted to agricultural and horticultural use, 8510.90.40.00 encompasses all other parts of hair clippers that do not meet the specific end-use criteria for agricultural or horticultural purposes. Therefore, if a part is for a standard personal grooming hair clipper, it would fall under the broader sibling category.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level relies heavily on the documented intended use of the hair clipper part in question. Customs officials will look for evidence demonstrating that the part is specifically manufactured or adapted for agricultural or horticultural functions, such as animal husbandry or landscape management, to ensure accurate classification under 8510.90.30.01.
