Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 8706 when importing chassis fitted with engines specifically designed for motor vehicles classified under headings 8701 to 8705. For example, if you're bringing in a chassis for a truck or bus, this code applies directly.

When deciding between HS-6 870600 and other headings, consider the specific vehicle type. If your chassis is intended for a passenger car, it falls under headings 8701 to 8705, and thus uses this code. Make sure to confirm the vehicle classification to avoid misclassification.
