About this HS Code
HS Code 8450 covers household or laundry-type washing machines, including machines which both wash and dry. The classification distinguishes between fully-automatic machines (8450.11), other machines with built-in centrifugal dryer (8450.12), other washing machines (8450.19), machines exceeding 10kg capacity (8450.20), and parts (8450.90). This household appliance category includes equipment for textile cleaning through mechanical agitation combined with water and detergents. Products range from simple top-loading washers to sophisticated front-loading machines with advanced electronic controls. Technical specifications focus on load capacity, water/energy efficiency, cleaning performance, spin speed, noise levels, and program versatility. Unlike industrial laundry equipment (HS 8451), these machines are designed specifically for residential use with appropriate capacity, installation requirements, and user interfaces. This division represents essential household technology that has dramatically reduced the labor intensity of textile maintenance, combining mechanical engineering, fluid dynamics, and increasingly, electronic control systems to automate the cleaning process for consumer textiles.
