What determines the tariff number?
- Material. Compression springs made from iron or steel are classified differently than those made from other materials. The material determines the main goods category and affects the HS code.
- Spring design. Helical springs, leaf springs, and other spring constructions fall into different subcategories. The specific design type influences the further classification of your tariff number.
- Condition and processing. Whether the spring is finished, pre-assembled, or imported as a raw spring impacts classification. Degree of processing and packaging can change the customs tariff code.
