Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "84" represent "Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery, and mechanical and electrical equipment, and parts thereof."

Specifically, this category includes the following:

• Nuclear reactors, boilers, and machinery: This includes various types of nuclear reactors, steam generators, boilers, turbines, generators, pumps, compressors, cranes, conveyor belts, agricultural machinery, construction machinery, industrial robots, etc.
• Electrical equipment: This includes power equipment, electric motors, generators, transformers, wires and cables, switchgear, lighting equipment, telecommunications equipment, radar, broadcasting and television equipment, computers and their peripheral equipment, etc.
• Parts: This covers parts of the above-mentioned equipment, such as motor parts, pump parts, valves, bearings, and wire and cable connectors.

Why is "84" used to represent these products?

This coding system originated in the 1950s with the aim of coordinating global tariffs and trade classification. The code "84" was assigned to these products because they play a central role in industrial production, energy supply, and technological applications, and usually involve complex manufacturing processes and technologies.

In summary, the HS code "84" represents equipment and parts related to industry, energy, and technology, and is a very important category of goods in global trade.

If you can provide a more specific HS code (e.g., 8401, 8411), I can provide a more detailed classification explanation.

The first four digits of the HS code "8428" refer to other lifting, handling, and loading machinery (e.g., elevators, escalators, conveyor belts, cable transport systems).

The six-digit explanation:

HS Code: 8428.40

Classification: Other lifting, handling, and loading machinery (e.g., elevators, escalators, conveyor belts, cable transport systems)

Meaning: Escalators and moving walkways.

8-10 digit explanation:

HS Code: 8428400000

Classification: Other lifting, handling, and loading machinery (e.g., elevators, escalators, conveyor belts, cable transport systems): Escalators and moving walkways

Explanation: This HS code covers types of lifting, handling, and loading machinery such as escalators and moving walkways.

Examples of products under this HS code:

• Escalators (moving staircases)
• Moving walkways (horizontal conveyor belts)
• Automated walkways for airports or shopping malls
• Specialized lifting and transport systems used in industrial or commercial facilities
