HS Code 961700

HS code 961700 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Vacuum flasks and other vacuum vessels, complete with cases; parts thereof other than glass inners". The first two digits (96) are the chapter — Miscellaneous manufactured articles — and digits 3-4 (9617) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 961700 include thermos, insulated bottle, vacuum bottle, thermos flask, drink bottle, insulated mug and similar items matching vacuum flasks and other vacuum vessels. 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 (961700) 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.
