Heading 8478Machinery; for preparing or making up tobacco, n.e.c. in this chapter

Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 847890 when importing or exporting parts for machinery designed for preparing or making up tobacco. For example, this code applies to spare parts for a cigarette-making machine.

This HS-6 line specifically covers parts that are not classified elsewhere in the chapter, unlike HS-6 847891, which pertains to complete machines for tobacco preparation. If you have a component that doesn’t fit the complete machinery category, this is likely the right code.

When dealing with machinery parts for tobacco processing, ensure you differentiate between those that are essential for operation and those that are merely accessories. For instance, a conveyor belt used in the tobacco packaging process would fall under this line, while a complete packaging machine would not.

If you're unsure whether a part qualifies under this code, consider its function. Parts that directly contribute to the operation of tobacco-making machines, such as blades or rollers, are typically included.
