Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 847149 when importing or exporting automatic data processing machines presented as systems, not classified elsewhere. For example, if you're shipping a complete computer system that includes a CPU, monitor, and keyboard, this code applies.

This code specifically covers systems that aren't detailed under other subheadings like 847130 for machines presented in a different configuration. If your product is a bundled system with various components, 847149 is the right choice.

In contrast, HS-6 847130 is for automatic data processing machines presented in a different form, such as standalone units. If your equipment is a single unit without additional components, you should consider that code instead.

When classifying your goods, ensure that the systems you are shipping are not specifically mentioned in other subheadings. This will help avoid misclassification and potential customs issues.
