9405.19 - Other:

This category, HTS Code 9405.19, encompasses chandeliers and other electric ceiling or wall lighting fittings that are not primarily designed for lighting public open spaces or thoroughfares. These are decorative or functional light fixtures intended for installation on ceilings or walls within residential, commercial, or other indoor environments. The "other" designation indicates that these fittings are not covered by more specific subheadings at this level.

Crucially, this subheading is distinct from its sibling, 9405.11, which specifically enumerates fixtures designed *solely* for use with light-emitting diode (LED) light sources. Therefore, HTS 9405.19 would apply to chandeliers and other ceiling/wall lights that utilize traditional incandescent, halogen, or fluorescent bulbs, or a combination of different light sources, provided they are not exclusively LED-dependent.

The subcategories under 9405.19 provide further refinement. Within this classification, there is a specific provision for fittings "Of base metal," indicating a subdivision based on the primary material of construction. Additionally, the "Other" subdivision (9405.19.80) serves as a residual category for any ceiling or wall lighting fittings that do not fall under the "Of base metal" designation, ensuring comprehensive coverage for this group of luminaires.
