HITCH TIGHTENER Classification & Duty Information
Based on the provided reference data, classifying "HITCH TIGHTENER" requires careful consideration of its material and specific function. Here's a breakdown of potential HS codes and associated duties, along with guidance for accurate classification:
Important Considerations:
- Material: The primary material composition (iron, steel, aluminum, etc.) is crucial for correct classification.
- Function: Is it a simple tightening device, or does it incorporate locking mechanisms?
- Application: Where is it used? (e.g., trailers, vehicles, industrial equipment)
Here are potential HS codes, categorized by likely material and function:
1. If made of Iron or Steel (Most Likely Scenario):
- 7326908688 - Other articles of iron or steel: Other: Other: Other: Other
- 73: Articles of iron or steel.
- 26: Other articles of iron or steel.
- 90: Other.
- 86: Other.
- 88: Other.
- Duty: 2.9% base tariff + 25.0% additional tariff (currently) / 30% additional tariff (post April 2, 2025) = Total 82.9%
- Note: This is a broad category. If the hitch tightener has a more specific function (e.g., part of a trailer coupling system), a more precise code might exist.
- 7326908605 - Other articles of iron or steel: Other: Other: Other: Rods for electrical grounding
- 73: Articles of iron or steel.
- 26: Other articles of iron or steel.
- 90: Other.
- 86: Other.
- 05: Rods for electrical grounding.
- Duty: 2.9% base tariff + 25.0% additional tariff (currently) / 30% additional tariff (post April 2, 2025) = Total 82.9%
- Note: This code is applicable if the hitch tightener is specifically designed for electrical grounding purposes.
2. If incorporating Locking Mechanisms (Potentially):
- 8301406060 - Padlocks and locks (key, combination or electrically operated), of base metal; clasps and frames with clasps, incorporating locks, of base metal; keys and parts of any of the foregoing articles, of base metal: Other locks: Other
- 83: Miscellaneous manufactured articles of base metal.
- 01: Padlocks and locks, etc.
- 40: Other locks.
- 60: Other.
- Duty: 5.7% base tariff + 7.5% additional tariff (currently) / 30% additional tariff (post April 2, 2025) = Total 43.2%
- Note: This applies only if the tightener functions as a locking device.
3. If a component of a larger assembly (e.g., trailer coupling):
- It's possible the hitch tightener is considered a part of a more complex item. In this case, the HS code for the entire assembly would be more appropriate. Further information about the complete product is needed.
Recommendations:
- Material Verification: Confirm the exact material composition of the hitch tightener.
- Functionality Detail: Provide a detailed description of how the tightener works and its intended use.
- Assembly Context: If it's part of a larger assembly, provide details about the complete product.
- Supplier Documentation: Request a classification statement from your supplier, if available.
- Customs Consultation: Consider consulting with a customs broker or local customs authority for a definitive classification.
