quick answer

For "section 301 tariff LED desk lamp from China", collect lamp type, LED module, driver, wattage, arm and base material, power adapter, battery, USB port, wireless charging, clamp, origin support, supplier code, and value. Then check the sourced HTS candidate against current USTR Section 301 material.

Do not treat a simple lamp and a lamp with wireless charging as the same file.

facts to collect for an LED desk lamp

Collect:

  • Invoice wording, SKU, model number, product page, and packaging photos.
  • Lamp type: desk lamp, clamp lamp, task lamp, rechargeable lamp, folding lamp, or smart lamp.
  • LED module, driver, wattage, input voltage, dimming, color temperature, touch control, and switch type.
  • Base, arm, shade, clamp, hinge, housing material, and dimensions.
  • Power adapter, USB cable, battery, wireless charging pad, USB output port, timer, clock, or display.
  • Set contents: adapter, cable, clamp, manual, spare parts, and retail packaging.
  • Country of origin evidence for LED module, driver PCB, housing, adapter, and final assembly.
  • Supplier HS or HTS code and notes.
  • Unit value, assists, freight, insurance, and shipment timing.

Keep photos of the adapter, base underside, and control panel. If the lamp has a wireless charging pad, photograph the pad marking and power input label.

missing facts

Mark the file incomplete when:

  • Plug-in versus rechargeable status is unclear.
  • Driver, wattage, or adapter facts are missing.
  • Wireless charging or USB output status is unsupported.
  • Clamp, cable, or adapter contents are not listed.
  • Origin is assumed from exporter paperwork.
  • Supplier code is only six digits or from another market.
  • Current USTR Section 301 treatment has not been checked for the candidate line.
  • Exclusion claims have no source date.

These gaps can move the file between lamp, lighting fixture, charger, wireless charging device, battery product, or retail kit paths.

HTS candidate notes

Build candidate rows around the imported lamp: plug-in LED desk lamp, rechargeable lamp, clamp lamp, smart lamp, lamp with wireless charger, or lamp-and-adapter kit. Each row should cite lighting function, power, electronics, set contents, origin, and supplier code.

Rejected paths should stay visible. If no battery is included, say so. If a charger pad is built in, record it.

authority sources

Use USITC HTS for tariff text. Use CBP CROSS for desk lamps, LED lighting, power adapters, wireless chargers, and kits. Use USTR for the current Section 301 check.

planning path

Start with a table for lamp type, power, driver, battery, charger function, set contents, origin, supplier code, and value. Then compare the candidate line with current Section 301 material.

The result should support broker review, not replace it.
