HS-6 · Subheading

841182

Turbines; gas-turbines (excluding turbo-jets and turbo-propellers), of a power exceeding 5000kW

Heading 8411Turbo-jets, turbo-propellers and other gas turbines

Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 841182 when importing or exporting gas turbines with a power output exceeding 5000 kW. For instance, if you're dealing with a large gas turbine used in a power plant, this code applies.

This HS-6 code specifically covers gas turbines that are not classified as turbo-jets or turbo-propellers, which are typically used in aviation. If you have a gas turbine that powers industrial machinery or large generators, you’ll want to use this code.

In contrast, HS-6 841181 covers gas turbines with a power output of 5000 kW or less. If your turbine falls into that category, you’ll need to classify it differently. Understanding the power output is crucial for correct classification.

Additionally, ensure that your turbine is not a turbo-jet or turbo-propeller, as those fall under a different HS-6 classification. This distinction is essential to avoid misclassification and potential customs issues.
