HS Code 870911

HS code 870911 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Works trucks, selfpropelled, not fitted with lifting or handling equipment, of the type used in factories, warehouses, dock areas or airports for short distance transport of goods; tractors of the type used on railway station platforms; parts of the foregoing vehicles : Vehicles : Electrical". The first two digits (87) are the chapter — Vehicles other than railway or tramway rolling stock, and parts — and digits 3-4 (8709) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 870911 include electric works truck, electric platform truck, electric tractor, electric tug, electric utility vehicle, electric industrial truck and similar items matching electrical. 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 (870911) 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.
