Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 8422 when importing or exporting dish washing machines and machinery designed for cleaning, drying, or packaging containers. For instance, if you're shipping a commercial dish washing machine, this code applies directly.

When deciding between 842211 and 842219, consider the end-use: 842211 covers household dish washing machines, while 842219 is for commercial or industrial types. If your product is intended for restaurants or hotels, it likely falls under 842219.

For machinery that cleans or dries containers, 842220 is the appropriate code. If your equipment fills or seals bottles, cans, or bags, look to 842230. It's crucial to identify whether your machinery is for cleaning or packaging to select the right subheading.

If your shipment includes parts for any of the machinery listed, use 842290. This code is specifically for components that support the functioning of the machines under HS-4 8422.
