Heading 8436 — Agricultural, horticultural, forestry, poultry-keeping, bee-keeping machinery; including germination plant fitted with mechanical or thermal equipment; poultry incubators and brooders
Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 843621 when importing or exporting poultry incubators and brooders designed for hatching eggs. These machines create controlled environments to ensure optimal incubation conditions. For example, a shipment of a commercial poultry incubator capable of holding several hundred eggs falls under this code.
This code specifically targets equipment that provides thermal and mechanical support for egg incubation, distinguishing it from other agricultural machinery. For instance, HS-6 843610 covers germination equipment, which is used for seeds rather than eggs.
Poultry incubators and brooders classified under 843621 can vary in size and complexity, from small, home-use models to large, industrial units. This contrasts with HS-6 843629, which includes other types of incubators not specifically designed for poultry.
When considering this code, ensure the equipment is primarily for poultry. If the incubator is designed for other birds or animals, it may not fit under this classification.
