9405.31.00.10 - Miniature series wired sets 🖩

This HTS category, 9405.31.00.10, specifically covers miniature series wired sets designed for use as Christmas tree lighting. These sets are characterized by their small size, multiple light sources connected in a series along a flexible wire, and their intended application for decorative illumination of Christmas trees. The defining feature is the specific design for use with LED light sources, which are now the primary technology for such decorative lighting due to their energy efficiency and longevity.

The distinction between this code and its sibling category, 9405.31.00.40 (Other), lies in the specificity of application. While the sibling category likely encompasses other types of lighting strings or decorative lighting not solely designated for Christmas trees, this code is precisely for those miniature wired sets intended for that seasonal decorative purpose. This granular classification allows for accurate tracking of goods specifically related to the Christmas holiday market.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code depends entirely on the product meeting the established criteria: being a miniature series wired set, designed for Christmas tree illumination, and exclusively utilizing LED light sources. Any deviation, such as sets designed for other decorative purposes or those using different lighting technologies, would likely fall under the "Other" sibling category or a different HTS code altogether.
