Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 841311 when importing or exporting pumps designed for dispensing fuel or lubricants, typically found in filling stations or garages. For example, a shipment of electric fuel pumps used at gas stations falls under this code.

If you’re dealing with pumps that are designed to dispense oil or gasoline, ensure they are specifically fitted with measuring devices to qualify for this HS-6. Non-measuring pumps, even if used for similar purposes, would require a different classification.
Understanding the nuances between HS-6 841311 and related lines is crucial for compliance. For example, while 841313 addresses pumps for specific industrial applications, 841311 is focused on consumer and automotive use.
