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 machine weaves textile materials rather than metal wire
Heading 84.46 covers weaving machines for textiles, which would apply if the mesh is made from non-metallic materials.
If the machine works metal forms other than wire
Covers other machine-tools for working metal without removing material, for non-wire applications.
If the weaving operation is not considered a wire-working function
Residual heading for machines with individual functions, applicable if the machine's operation is not squarely within 84.63.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm that the machine weaves metal wire specifically, as machines weaving textile materials are classified under different headings
• Provide the CBSA with the machine's mesh specifications, including wire gauge and weave pattern capabilities
• For rebuilt machinery, include documentation of the rebuilding process and any new components installed
