HS-6 · Subheading
840220
Boilers; super-heated water boilers
Heading 8402 — Boilers; steam or other vapour generating (other than central heating hot water boilers, capable also of producing low pressure steam), super heated water boilers
Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 840220 when importing or exporting super-heated water boilers. These are specialized boilers designed to produce water at high temperatures, often used in industrial processes or power generation. For example, a shipment of a super-heated water boiler intended for a manufacturing facility would fall under this code.
This code specifically targets boilers that generate super-heated water, distinguishing them from other types of boilers like those producing low-pressure steam. If you have a boiler that can produce both super-heated water and low-pressure steam, you may need to consider HS-6 840211 instead, which covers those capable of producing low-pressure steam.
When classifying your product, ensure it meets the criteria of a super-heated water boiler, as this will affect your customs duties and compliance. This HS-6 line is crucial for ensuring that your equipment meets specific safety and performance standards required for industrial applications.
