Common questions
What is HS code 8704?
8704 is the HS 2022 heading for Vehicles; for the transport of goods. It is in chapter 87 (Vehicles; other than railway or tramway rolling stock, and parts and accessories thereof), section XVII, and has 13 six-digit subheadings, from 8704.10 to 8704.90.
Can I write 8704 on a commercial invoice?
Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 8704.10), and the import declaration uses the destination country’s full code of 8 to 10 digits. Use the subheading that matches your product, and confirm the national digits with the buyer, the customs broker or the official tariff.
