Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If configured for hole punching rather than milling
Machines primarily for punching or stamping metal classify under 8459, not general transfer machines.
If sold as toolholder set with machine
When imported as complete set with specific tooling, may classify under tool-holding machines.
If equipped with advanced testing metrology
Excessive testing apparatus for semiconductor devices shifts classification toward Chapter 90.
Not sure which classification is right?
The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right HTS code — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide video demonstration or engineering drawings showing transfer mechanism between stations
• Label all axes and tooling stations clearly; ensure invoice specifies 'for working metal' exclusively
