HS Code 860800

HS code 860800 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Railway or tramway track fixtures and fittings; mechanical (including electromechanical) signalling, safety or traffic control equipment for railways, tramways, roads, inland waterways, parking facilities, port installations or airfields; parts of the foregoing". The first two digits (86) are the chapter — Railway or tramway locomotives, rolling stock and track fixtures — and digits 3-4 (8608) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 860800 include rail track fixtures, railway signaling, track equipment, signal system, traffic control, switch and similar items matching railway or tramway track fixtures and fittings. 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 (860800) 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.
