HS-6 · Subheading
880790
Aircraft and spacecraft; parts thereof n.e.c. in chapter 88
Heading 8807 — Aircraft; parts of goods of heading 8801, 8802 or 8806
Chapter 88: Aircraft, spacecraft
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 880790 when importing or exporting parts of aircraft or spacecraft that don't fit into other specific categories. For instance, this code applies to specialized components like control surfaces or landing gear that are not classified under headings like 8801 or 8802.
This code is distinct from HS-6 880710, which covers parts specifically for military aircraft. If your shipment includes parts for civilian aircraft, HS-6 880790 is likely the correct choice. Always ensure the part's end use aligns with this classification.
The 880790 line includes various aircraft parts not specified elsewhere, such as fuselage sections, wing components, or engine mounts. These parts are essential for the assembly or repair of aircraft and spacecraft, reflecting their specialized nature.
When classifying your goods, consider whether the parts are integral to the aircraft's operation or structure. If they are, HS-6 880790 is probably applicable. If you have parts that are more general or not specific to aircraft, you may need to look at other headings.
