What HS code 8302 covers

Heading 8302 is for the small metal parts that let things open, close, roll and hang. Think of hinges, castors with mountings, door closers and brackets. Every item must be made of base metal. You may also see this heading called HSN code 8302 or HTS code 8302. The first six digits are the shared international base.

The heading sits in Section XV, which covers base metals, and in Chapter 83, which holds miscellaneous articles of base metal. The official wording is long, but the idea is simple. These are base metal mountings and fittings made for furniture, doors, windows, trunks, chests and similar items. They also include fittings for buildings and motor vehicles.

The heading is for the fitting, not for the thing it goes on. A hinge is classified here. The cabinet or window it is screwed to is not.

Which 8302 subheading fits hinges, castors or fittings?

Start with what the part is. Then ask where it is used. The plain labels below show how each six-digit code reads in everyday words.

Hinges, castors, hat-racks and door closers each have their own code. Fittings that are not one of these go by end use: vehicles, buildings, furniture, or something else. Treat 830249 as the last stop. Choose it only when the part is not made for buildings or furniture and does not match any other line.

• 830210: hinges of base metal for furniture, doors, staircases, windows, blinds, trunks and the like
• 830220: castors with mountings, of base metal
• 830230: motor vehicle mountings and fittings
• 830241: building fittings, which include many door and window fittings
• 830242: furniture fittings of base metal
• 830249: other fittings, not made for buildings or furniture
• 830250: hat-racks, hat-pegs, brackets and similar fixtures
• 830260: automatic door closers of base metal

HS 8302 vs 8301 locks and other Chapter 83 headings

Many buyers mix up 8302 with the headings next to it. The difference comes down to the job of the part.

If it locks, look at 8301. That heading covers padlocks, locks of all kinds, clasps with built-in locks, and keys. A door lock goes there, while a door hinge or door closer stays in 8302.

Clasps, buckles, hooks and eyelets for clothing, footwear, bags and travel goods belong to 8308. If your part still does not fit, the HS code classifier can help you check it. You can also browse the rest of Chapter 83 to compare headings side by side.
