Covered products
What products fall under HS code 845630?
Buyers sourcing operated by electrodischarge processes from 1688 commonly describe it in these ways. If your product matches, 845630 is likely the right 6-digit starting point — confirm material and intended use against the official tariff.
Import duty by market
Where to check the import duty for HS 845630
The 6-digit code is universal, but duty, VAT and GST are set by the destination country and depend on the full national tariff line with China as the country of origin. Start from the official source for your market.

Questions
HS code 845630: common questions
What is HS code 845630?
HS code 845630 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Machine tools for working any material by removal of material, by laser or other light or photon beam, ultrasonic, electrodischarge, electrochemical, electron beam, ionicbeam or plasma arc processes; waterjet cutting machines : Operated by electrodischarge processes". The first two digits (84) are the chapter — Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts — and digits 3-4 (8456) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 845630?
Common products classified under 845630 include EDM machine, electric discharge machine, spark erosion machine, wire EDM, die sinking EDM and similar items matching operated by electrodischarge processes. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 845630?
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.
Is HS code 845630 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (845630) 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.
Can I trust the HS code a 1688 supplier gives me?
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.
