HS Code 844331

HS code 844331 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Printing machinery used for printing by means of plates, cylinders and other printing components of heading 8442; other printers, copying machines and facsimile machines, whether or not combined; parts and accessories thereof : Other printers, copying machines and facsimile machines, whether or not combined : Machines which perform two or more of the functions of printing, copying or facsimile transmission, capable of connecting to an automatic dataprocessing machine or to a network". The first two digits (84) are the chapter — Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts — and digits 3-4 (8443) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 844331 include multifunction printer, all-in-one printer, MFP, copy printer fax, multifunction device, print copy scan machine and similar items matching machines which perform two or more of the…. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.

Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.

The first 6 digits (844331) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.

Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
