Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 870191 when importing or exporting tractors with an engine power not exceeding 18kW. For example, a compact garden tractor designed for residential landscaping would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers tractors that are not classified under heading 8709, which includes specialized tractors. If you have a small utility tractor meant for light agricultural tasks, it likely belongs here.
In contrast, HS-6 870192 covers tractors with higher engine power exceeding 18kW. If your tractor is more powerful, you'll need to look at that code instead.
Understanding the distinction between these codes is crucial for compliance. Misclassifying your tractor could lead to delays or penalties during customs clearance.
