HS code 870431 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Motor vehicles for the transport of goods : Other, with sparkignition internal combustion piston engine : Of a gross vehicle weight not exceeding 5 tonnes". The first two digits (87) are the chapter — Vehicles other than railway or tramway rolling stock, and parts — and digits 3-4 (8704) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 870431?
Common products classified under 870431 include light gasoline truck, petrol truck, gasoline pickup, light commercial vehicle, petrol van and similar items matching of a gross vehicle weight not exceeding 5 tonnes. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 870431?
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 870431 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (870431) 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.
