Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "84" represent nuclear reactors, boilers, machines, mechanical appliances, and parts thereof.

Specifically, this chapter includes the following main categories:

  • Nuclear reactors, boilers, steam generators, turbines, engines, pumps, compressors, machine tools, machine tools, agricultural machinery, construction machinery, industrial robots, etc.
  • Electrical equipment and parts thereof: Including generators, transformers, motors, wires and cables, switchgear, lighting equipment, electron tubes, semiconductor devices, telecommunications equipment, radio and television equipment, etc.

Reason for classification:

The classification of this chapter is based on the function and use of the product, that is, whether the product belongs to nuclear energy utilization, energy conversion, power drive, material processing, or the generation, transmission, and reception of electrical signals. It covers various mechanical and electrical equipment that are essential to industrial production and modern society.

In short, if the product is used to generate, convert, transmit, or utilize energy, or to perform mechanical processing, material handling, or processing of electrical signals, it is likely to belong to Chapter 84 of the HS code.
