Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "84" represent machinery, electrical equipment, and their parts.

Specifically, this chapter includes the following main categories:

  • Machinery: Includes various industrial machinery, agricultural machinery, textile machinery, food processing machinery, printing machinery, etc.
  • Electrical equipment: Includes generators, transformers, motors, wires and cables, lighting equipment, household appliances, etc.
  • Parts: Covers parts of the above machinery and electrical equipment.

Reason for classification:

The establishment of the "84" chapter is to unify the classification and management of all types of machinery and electrical equipment and their related parts. These devices play a crucial role in modern industrial production and daily life, so a dedicated chapter is needed for regulation.

In short, if the product is used for mechanical operations, energy generation, conversion, or utilization, or is a component of machinery or electrical equipment, it is likely to fall under the HS code "84" chapter.

To more accurately determine the HS code of a product, it is also necessary to further examine the product's specific function, material, and use.

The first four digits explanation: HS code: 8475

Classification description: Machines for assembling electric or electronic lamps, lamp tubes, or flash bulbs; machines for manufacturing or thermal processing of glass or glass products; their parts.

The six-digit explanation: HS code: 8475.90

Classification: Machines for assembling electric or electronic lamps, lamp tubes, or flash bulbs in glass envelopes; machines for manufacturing or thermal processing of glass or glassware; their parts: --> Parts: --> Other

Meaning: This code covers machines for assembling electric or electronic lamps, lamp tubes, or flash bulbs in glass envelopes, as well as parts of machines for manufacturing or thermal processing of glass or glass products, especially "other" parts.

8-10 digit explanation: hscode: 8475909000 Classification: Machine equipment for assembling electronic lamps, lamp tubes, or flash bulbs (in glass envelopes); machines for manufacturing or thermal processing of glass or glass products; parts: --> Parts: --> Other Explanation: This HS code covers machine equipment for assembling electronic lamps, lamp tubes, or flash bulbs (in glass envelopes), as well as machines for manufacturing or thermal processing of glass or glass products, and parts of these machine equipment, especially "other" parts.

Customer Reviews

DanielMiller ★★★★★

This site made it easy to understand the HS code for our glass lamp assembly machines. The detailed explanation of 8475909000 was spot on.

OliviaTaylor ★★★★

The page is well-organized, and the breakdown of the HS code classifications is thorough. Just wish there were more examples for parts of glass processing machines.

MichaelBrown ★★★★★

I was looking for details on glass bulb manufacturing equipment, and the HS code 8475.90 explanation provided exactly what I needed. Highly recommend this site.

EmilyDavis ★★★★

The information about the first two digits of the HS code was clear, but I would have liked more examples for the 8475 chapter.

JamesWilson ★★★★★

This page was a lifesaver when trying to classify our glass processing equipment. The specific examples under 8475909000 were exactly what I needed.
