HS-6 · Subheading
880730
Aircraft and spacecraft; parts of aeroplanes, helicopters or unmanned aircraft n.e.c. in heading no. 8807
Heading 8807 — Aircraft; parts of goods of heading 8801, 8802 or 8806
Chapter 88: Aircraft, spacecraft
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 880730 when importing or exporting parts specifically designed for aircraft and spacecraft, such as fuselage sections or wing components. For example, if you're shipping a set of helicopter rotor blades, this code applies.
This code covers parts of aeroplanes, helicopters, or unmanned aircraft that are not classified elsewhere in heading 8807. For instance, if you’re dealing with a specialized landing gear assembly, you would also use this HS-6.
In contrast, HS-6 880740 is for parts of aircraft engines, so if your shipment consists of engine components, you would select that code instead. Understanding the distinctions helps ensure compliance and accurate duty assessments.
When classifying parts, consider the specific use and design of the item. If you have a part that is a control surface for an aircraft, it falls under this code, while similar parts for drones may require different classification.
