Questions
HS code 990216: common questions
What is HS code 990216?
HS code 990216 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Stator core and rotor core laminations, imported in pairs each comprising one stator core lamination and one rotor core lamination; with such stator core laminations having an exterior diameter of 26.42 cm and an inner diameter of 20.35 cm, weighing 4.14 kg or more but not over 6.72 kg; such rotor core laminations having an exterior diameter of 20.2 cm and an inner diameter of 14.0 cm, weighing 3.3 kg or more but not over 5.3 kg; the foregoing certified by the importer as designed to be used in the manufacture of generator motors for charging the battery of hybrid vehicles and of electric motors for propulsion of hybrid vehicles (provided for in subheading 8503.00.95)". The first two digits (99) are the chapter — Special classification provisions — and digits 3-4 (9902) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 990216?
Common products classified under 990216 include motor laminations, stator and rotor laminations, electrical steel laminations, hybrid motor laminations and similar items matching stator core and rotor core laminations. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 990216?
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 990216 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (990216) 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.
