Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 847690 when importing or exporting parts specifically designed for automatic goods-vending machines, such as components for food or beverage dispensers. For example, if you're shipping a replacement coin mechanism for a soda vending machine, this code applies.
This line covers parts that are integral to the functioning of vending machines, distinguishing them from complete machines classified under HS-6 847620. If you’re dealing with a full vending machine, you’d use that code instead.
Parts like control panels, dispensing mechanisms, and coin acceptors fall under this classification. If you’re unsure whether your item is a part or a complete machine, remember that this HS-6 is strictly for components.
When classifying parts, consider their specific use in vending machines. For example, a component that sorts and dispenses change would be classified here, while a standalone vending machine would not.
