8516.90.90.00 - Other 🖩

HTS code 8516.90.90.00 encompasses "Other" parts for electrothermic appliances, falling under the broader category of parts for electric instantaneous or storage water heaters, space heating apparatus, hairdressing apparatus, flatirons, and other domestic electrothermic appliances. This classification serves as a residual category for components that do not fit into the more specifically defined subheadings within heading 8516.90.

This "Other" category is distinct from sibling classifications such as 8516.90.05.00, which are specific to parts of heaters or heating apparatus of subheadings 8516.10, 8516.21, or 8516.29. Similarly, it differs from 8516.90.15.00 (housings for hand-drying apparatus) and 8516.90.25.00 (housings and steel bases for electric flatirons). When classifying a part under 8516.90.90.00, it is crucial to first determine if it specifically fits any of the more detailed sibling categories. If a part is unique or not explicitly assigned to another subheading within 8516.90, this residual category is applicable.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 8516.90.90.00 will rely on a thorough examination of the part's physical characteristics, material composition, and its specific function within an electrothermic appliance that is not otherwise enumerated in the preceding subheadings of 8516.90. Examples might include miscellaneous fasteners, insulating materials, or small structural components for appliances like electrothermic ovens or general-purpose domestic heating devices not covered by more specific part descriptions.
