HS 854239 · Other electronic integrated circuits
Get the code right at quotation time, not at customs.
Misclassifying HS 854239 on the commercial invoice walks the cargo into the wrong duty rate, the wrong rebate column, and a customs hold that costs days of demurrage to clear. This page gives you the WCO heading, the product it most often covers, the China VAT export rebate rate, the US Section 301 status, the supplier provinces that ship it, and practitioner buying notes for first-time importers.
For an explanation of how the WCO Harmonized System is structured, what each digit means, and why misclassification is the most common landed-cost error first-time buyers make, see the HS code glossary entry.

Buying notes
Catchall for ASICs, mixed-signal, RF, sensor, and power-management ICs not covered by 854231 to 854233. Chinese fabless ecosystem (Will Semi, Goodix, Spreadtrum, Allwinner) competes on consumer-grade parts; automotive and industrial-grade ICs still dominated by Western and Japanese majors. Section 301 25%. Watch the BIS Entity List on advanced-node fabs: SMIC and YMTC restrictions affect what can ship to US-end-customer applications, irrespective of HS code.

Glossary
HS Code, Harmonized System Code
A six-digit international product classification code used by customs authorities worldwide to identify goods, assess duties, and apply trade controls. Countries extend the six-digit base with additional digits for tariff and statistical purposes (10-digit HTS in the US, 8-digit CN code in the EU, 10-digit AHECC in Australia).
