More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the scale has a maximum weighing capacity not exceeding 30 kg
This covers other weighing machinery with lower capacity, which may apply if the multi-lane scale weighs individual packages rather than continuous bulk flow.
If the scale is integrated into a packaging machine as a component
Packaging machinery with integrated weighing functions may be classified under this heading for packing or wrapping machinery.
Not sure which classification is right?
The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm the scale is not part of a complete packaging machine, as that could shift classification to a packaging machinery heading
• The IP69K rating may require additional documentation to prove the washdown capability, but it does not affect the tariff classification
• Be prepared to declare the scale's weight and dimensions for CBSA processing
