For 1000 volts and below
This is a complete 8-digit customs code. Exports and Intrastat use it as it is. For an import into the EU, pick a 10-digit line below.
This code covers panels, consoles, cabinets and similar assemblies made up of two or more electrical devices for controlling or distributing electricity. The equipment must be for 1000 volts and below and must not be one of the specifically named types in the same group.
Official tariff text
Boards, cabinets and similar combinations of apparatus for electric control or the distribution of electricity, for a voltage <= 1.000 V (excl. switching apparatus for line telephony or line telegraphy, numerical control panels with built-in automatic data-processing machines, programmable memory controllers and touch screens)

Selling to Norway, Great Britain and the United States
Norway, Great Britain and the United States use their own tariff lines under the 6-digit HS code. The rates below are what their customs charge on goods arriving from the EU. Match the goods against each country's own wording before you rely on a rate.

Before you use the code
The code can be right while what you pay still changes, because of where the goods come from, when they arrive, or extra EU measures.
On an EU import declaration
14 import lines
When these goods are imported into the EU, the declaration needs a 10-digit code. Under 8537 10 98 the EU tariff has 14 lines, each with its own wording.
You or your customs agent pick the line whose wording fits the goods; the last line, "Other", covers what none of the specific wordings describe.
Some lines depend on what the goods will be used for and need customs authorisation; matching the wording alone does not give a lower rate.

A suspension is a lower rate the EU grants for specific products; whether your goods qualify depends on the line's wording and conditions.
Exports from the EU and Intrastat normally use the 8-digit code as it is.
EU tariff data of Sept. 13, 2026.
This is the catch-all under 8537 10: it covers what the sibling codes below do not.
Inside the group of assembled control or distribution apparatus for 1000 volts and below, this code covers the products with two or more electrical devices that are not the specifically named numerical control panels, programmable-storage-unit control systems or touch-sensitive data-input devices.
Rates, origin and documents
Besides the ordinary duty, the EU records these kinds of measure against this code. They are listed as signals only: whether one applies to your goods can depend on where they come from, who produced them, the exact product and the documents you present. No amounts are worked out here.
Data of Sept. 1, 2026
Preferential rates exist for goods originating in:
These rates apply to Economic Partnership Agreements; CARIFORUM except Haiti; GSP-EBA (Special arrangement for the least-developed countries - Everything But Arms); GSP+ (incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance); OCTs (Overseas Countries and Territories); GSP - General arrangements except India.
Whether you can use one depends on the origin rules for the goods and on the documentation you can show.
Check this code in the official EU TARIC databaseImport restrictions are recorded for goods originating in:
The EU records document conditions on this code. What customs may ask for depends on where the goods come from, exactly what the product is and the customs procedure.
Proof of origin 2 conditions
If you claim a lower rate for goods from a country the EU has a trade agreement with, customs asks for proof of origin, for example a EUR.1 certificate or an origin declaration.
Sanctions and restricted regions 18 conditions
Some conditions come from EU sanctions rules. They matter when the goods are linked to a country or region the EU restricts trade with.
Product controls and permits 3 conditions
Depending on the exact product, customs may ask for a licence, a permit or a control certificate before the goods are released.
Statements that the goods are outside a rule's scope 3 conditions
Some conditions are statements that a rule does not cover the goods, for example that the product is not on a controlled list.
Other conditions 8 conditions
These conditions match none of the groups above. Whether customs asks for one depends on the goods, where they come from and the customs procedure.
