Find HS Code and trade information for patch tool

Here's a classification of "patch tool" based on the provided data, aiming for 5-10 relevant HS codes. Given the limited scope of the reference data, the classification will focus on tools potentially matching the description.

• 8203.20.60.30: Files, rasps, pliers (including cutting pliers), pincers, tweezers and similar tools, and parts thereof; Pliers (including cutting pliers), pincers, tweezers and similar tools, and parts thereof; Other; Other (except parts) Pliers.

  • 82: Indicates hand tools, manually operated.
  • 03: Specifically relates to files, rasps, pliers, pincers, tweezers.
  • 20: Further specifies pliers, pincers, and tweezers.
  • 60: Denotes 'Other' within this category.
  • 30: Further specifies 'Other (except parts) Pliers'.
  • Applicable if the patch tool functions as a type of plier, such as for gripping or bending. The tax rate is 12¢/doz. + 5.5% + 25.0% (or 30.0% after 2025.4.2).

• 8203.20.60.60: Files, rasps, pliers (including cutting pliers), pincers, tweezers and similar tools, and parts thereof; Pliers (including cutting pliers), pincers, tweezers and similar tools, and parts thereof; Other; Other (except parts) Other.

Important Considerations:

• Functionality is Key: The classification depends heavily on what the "patch tool" does. Is it primarily for gripping (plier), cutting (potentially a specialized plier), or another function?
• Material Composition: The material of the tool can influence the correct HS code.
• Parts vs. Complete Tools: The provided HS codes specifically exclude "parts". If you are importing individual components of a patch tool, a different HS code may be required.
• Tariff Changes: Be aware of the tariff rate changes scheduled for after 2025.4.2.
• Single or Multiple Functions: If the tool combines multiple functions, the most dominant function should determine the HS code.

Recommendation:

To ensure accurate classification, please provide more detail about the tool's:

• Specific function(s).
• Material composition.
• Whether it is a complete tool or a part.
• The single price or price per dozen.
