Classification Notes

Smart door locks with keypad, fingerprint scanner, Bluetooth, or WiFi access are classified under 8301.40 as locks of base metal. The integrated electronic access mechanism (Bluetooth, keypad, fingerprint reader, NFC) does not shift the classification away from chapter 83 — the primary function is locking/securing a door. Deadbolt smart locks, knob-type smart locks, and mortise smart locks are all 8301.40. Smart lock retrofit kits (motorised thumbturn units that attach to existing deadbolts) are 8301.40. Section 301 tariffs at 25% apply to Chinese-origin locks under 8301.40 — a significant cost factor for importers. Biometric time-and-attendance door controllers (with access logging, not primarily residential security) may shift to 8543 (other electrical machines).
