HS-6 · Subheading
840732
Engines; reciprocating piston engines, of a kind used for the propulsion of vehicles of chapter 87, of a cylinder capacity exceeding 50cc but not exceeding 250cc
Heading 8407 — Reciprocating or rotary internal combustion piston engines
Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 840732 when importing or exporting reciprocating piston engines designed for vehicles, specifically those with a cylinder capacity between 50cc and 250cc. For example, a shipment of motorcycle engines that meet these specifications would fall under this code.
This code is distinct from HS-6 840731, which covers similar engines but with a cylinder capacity not exceeding 50cc. If you're dealing with small engines for scooters or mopeds, you'll want to reference that code instead.
Engines classified under HS-6 840732 are typically used in motorcycles, ATVs, and certain types of small vehicles. These engines are crucial for propulsion and must meet specific performance standards.
When considering this HS-6 code, also note that engines exceeding 250cc fall under a different classification, such as HS-6 840733. This differentiation is important for compliance and accurate tariff classification.
