HS Code 850590

HS code 850590 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Electromagnets; permanent magnets and articles intended to become permanent magnets after magnetisation; electromagnetic or permanent magnet chucks, clamps and similar holding devices; electromagnetic couplings, clutches and brakes; electromagnetic lifting heads : Other, including parts". The first two digits (85) are the chapter — Electrical machinery and equipment; sound and TV recorders and reproducers — and digits 3-4 (8505) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 850590 include electromagnet, magnetic chuck, magnetic clamp, lifting magnet, parts for magnets and similar items matching other. 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 (850590) 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.
