HS-6 · Subheading

681519

Stone or other mineral substances not elsewhere specified or included; non-electrical articles of graphite or carbon n.e.c. in heading 6815

Heading 6815Stone or other mineral substances; articles thereof (including carbon fibres, articles of carbon fibres and articles of peat), not elsewhere specified or included

Chapter 68: Articles of stone, plaster, cement

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 681519 when importing or exporting non-electrical articles made from graphite or carbon that aren't classified elsewhere. For example, this code applies to carbon fiber components used in sporting goods or automotive parts.

This code is specifically for items that fall under the category of stone or mineral substances not specified in other headings. Unlike HS-6 6815XX, which covers various stone articles, 681519 focuses solely on non-electrical graphite or carbon products.

If your shipment includes items like carbon fiber rods or sheets, or non-electrical graphite molds, 681519 is the appropriate classification. Be cautious not to confuse it with HS-6 681511, which covers electrical articles of carbon.

When determining the right HS code, consider the specific use and material composition of your product. Items like carbon-based filters or non-electrical carbon brushes should also be classified under 681519.

Questions & answers

For orientation only—the binding text is your national tariff and the WCO nomenclature your country uses.

What types of products are classified under HS-6 681519?
HS-6 681519 covers non-electrical articles made from graphite or carbon, such as carbon fiber sheets, graphite molds, and carbon rods.
Can I use this code for electrical carbon products?
No, HS-6 681519 is specifically for non-electrical articles. For electrical carbon products, you should refer to HS-6 681511.
How do I determine if my product fits under this HS code?
Consider the material composition and intended use of your product. If it is a non-electrical article made of graphite or carbon, it likely falls under HS-6 681519.
Are there any specific examples of items that fall under HS-6 681519?
Yes, examples include carbon fiber components used in sports equipment, non-electrical graphite molds, and carbon-based filters.
What is the difference between HS-6 681519 and HS-6 681511?
HS-6 681519 is for non-electrical articles, while HS-6 681511 covers electrical articles made from carbon.
Do I need to provide any special documentation for HS-6 681519 products?
Typically, you will need to provide standard import/export documentation, but check with your customs broker for any specific requirements.
Is there a specific packaging requirement for items classified under HS-6 681519?
There are no specific packaging requirements for this HS code, but ensure that items are securely packaged to prevent damage during transit.
Can I classify carbon fiber products under a different HS code?
It depends on the product's specifications. If it is non-electrical and made from carbon or graphite, HS-6 681519 is appropriate.
