Questions
HS code 880521: common questions

HS code 880521 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Aircraft launching gear; deckarrestor or similar gear; ground flying trainers; parts of the foregoing articles : Ground flying trainers and parts thereof : Air combat simulators and parts thereof". The first two digits (88) are the chapter — Aircraft, spacecraft, and parts thereof — and digits 3-4 (8805) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 880521?
Common products classified under 880521 include air combat simulator, flight simulator, combat trainer, simulator parts and similar items matching air combat simulators and parts thereof. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 880521?
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 880521 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (880521) 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.
