US HTS 8421.39.0115, EU CN 8421 39 25 (machinery for filtering or purifying air). Air purifiers with HEPA, activated carbon, and UV filters are classified under 8421.39 as filtering machines for gases. Standalone HEPA filter replacements are 8421.99 (parts). Air purifiers combined with humidifiers: classify by essential character (usually the purifier if that is the primary function). Ionisers without a physical filter may be classified differently — check with customs if the product relies solely on ionisation. CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) value does not affect classification.
