Questions

HS code 990391: common questions

What is HS code 990391?

HS code 990391 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Notwithstanding heading 9903.91.14, effective with respect to entries, on or after November 10, 2026, of ship-to-shore gantry cranes, configured as a high- or low-profile steel superstructure and designed to unload intermodal containers from vessels with coupling devices for containers, including spreaders or twist-locks (provided for in subheading 8426.19.00), that: (1) are products of China; (2) that are manufactured, assembled or made using components, assemblies or subassemblies that are products of China; or (3) that are manufactured by a company or other entity that is owned or controlled by a Chinese person or legal entity, as specified by subdivision (l) of U.S. note 31 to this subchapter, that are attested by the importer as fulfilling in whole or in part an executed contract for sale dated prior to April 17, 2025 for goods that are entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, in the United States prior to April 18, 2027.". The first two digits (99) are the chapter — Special classification provisions — and digits 3-4 (9903) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

What products fall under HS 990391?

Common products classified under 990391 include ship-to-shore gantry cranes, STS cranes, container cranes, port cranes, gantry cranes and similar items matching notwithstanding heading 9903.91.14. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.

How do I find the import duty for HS code 990391?

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 990391 the same in every country?

The first 6 digits (990391) 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.
