HS-6 · Subheading
851190
Ignition or starting equipment; parts of the equipment of heading no. 8511, for use in spark-ignition or compression-ignition internal combustion engines
Heading 8511 — Ignition or starting equipment; used for spark-ignition or compression-ignition internal combustion engines; generators and cut outs used in conjunction with such engines
Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 851190 when importing or exporting parts specifically designed for ignition or starting equipment in internal combustion engines. An example would be a shipment of ignition coils intended for use in gasoline engines.
This code applies to parts that support ignition systems, distinguishing them from complete ignition assemblies classified under HS-6 851110. For instance, while 851110 covers complete ignition systems, 851190 focuses solely on individual components like spark plugs or ignition switches.
When considering parts for compression-ignition engines, such as diesel engines, HS-6 851190 remains relevant. It includes components like starter motors and relays that are essential for engine operation but are not complete systems.
If you're dealing with parts that enhance the functionality of ignition systems, ensure they fit the criteria of HS-6 851190. This classification is crucial for compliance with customs regulations and for accurate tariff assessments.
