1 six-digit code · Heading 12 of 16 in Chapter 87 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
HS code 8712 is the Harmonized System heading for bicycles and other cycles that have no motor. This page shows what fits, what does not, and where to find bicycle trade records.
Heading 8712does not subdivide further in the WCO nomenclature: goods answering to “Bicycles and other cycles; including delivery tricycles, not motorised” classify at the single six-digit code 871200. The heading is number 12 of 16 in Chapter 87, Vehicles; other than railway or tramway rolling stock, and parts and accessories thereof, which runs to 98 six-digit codes in all.

What heading 8712 covers
The wording is short: bicycles and other cycles, including delivery tricycles. A pedal bicycle and a pedal delivery tricycle both fit here.
Some countries and trade papers call the same heading HSN code 8712. The goods and the wording are the same. Customs uses the heading for tariff classification, so a wrong code can cause delays and questions at the border.
The test is simple. If only the rider moves the cycle, the goods are non-motorised cycles. The next section shows what to do when that is not true.
- Bicycles that run without a motor
- Other non-motorised cycles
- Delivery tricycles without a motor
Difference between HS 8711 and 8712: how to pick the right code
Ask one question first: does the cycle have a motor? If it has an auxiliary motor, go to heading 8711. That heading also holds motorcycles, mopeds and side-cars. If there is no motor, stay with 8712.
Three other headings sit close by and cause mix-ups.
- Use it when you ship components, not whole cycles.
- 8713 covers carriages for disabled persons, whether or not they are motorised or otherwise mechanically propelled.
- 8715 covers baby carriages and parts of them.
Who imports bicycles, and who supplies them?
Every cycle that crosses a border leaves a customs record. The record shows the company that brought the goods in and the company that sent them. Read together, these records show how a market for non-motorised cycles is built.
Sales teams use them to find new buyers. Sourcing teams use them to compare suppliers. Researchers use them to see which markets are active. Start with the code 871200 and check heading 8714 as well if you sell components, because companies that buy cycles often buy parts too.
If you are not sure which heading fits your goods, run the product description through the HS code classifier first. When you are ready, go straight to buyer data or supplier data.
