HS Code 8403Central heating boilers; excluding those of heading no. 8402
2 six-digit codes · Heading 3 of 86 in Chapter 84 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
HS code 8403 is the heading for central heating boilers and their parts, kept apart from the steam boilers of heading 8402. This page shows which code fits your product and how to find the companies that trade it.
Heading 8403 splits exactly two ways. Goods answering to “Central heating boilers; excluding those of heading no. 8402” classify either at 840310 or at 840390, and the wording in the table below is the whole of what separates them. The heading is number 3 of 86 in Chapter 84, Machinery and mechanical appliances, boilers, nuclear reactors; parts thereof, which runs to 538 six-digit codes in all.
HS 8403 codes: boilers (840310) and parts (840390)
Heading 8403 gives you two choices. A finished boiler goes to 840310. A part of a boiler goes to 840390.
Picture a complete unit that heats water for the radiators in a building. That is a central heating boiler, so it is HS 840310. Now picture something you buy to build or repair that unit. That is a part of a central heating boiler, so it is HS 840390.
If you search for hs code for parts of central heating boilers, the answer is 840390. Some buyers and sellers also look for this heading as HSN code 8403 or HTS 8403. The heading number is the same.
- Boilers (840310): central heating boilers
- Parts (840390): parts of central heating boilers
8402 vs 8403 vs 8404: which heading fits your boiler
Three neighbouring headings deal with boilers. They are easy to mix up, so here is the short guide.
Its wording leaves out central heating hot water boilers, even those that can also make low pressure steam. Those belong in 8403.
Heading 8404 is not for the boiler itself. It covers the extra equipment that works with boilers of heading 8402 or 8403. It also covers condensers for steam or other vapour power units.
A simple test helps. Ask what the product does. If it heats a building and is not a steam or vapour boiler, look at 8403. If it makes steam or vapour, look at 8402. If it supports a boiler, look at 8404.
Duty and tax depend on your country, so check the national tariff once you have picked the code. If you are unsure which heading fits, the classifier can help you check.
