HTS CHAPTER

Chapter 86: Railway Locomotives

Chapter 86 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) covers railway locomotives, tramway vehicles, rolling stock, and their parts, essential for the transportation sector. This chapter includes various product categories such as electric and diesel locomotives, passenger cars, freight wagons, and railway track components. Common examples of products imported under this chapter are electric locomotives, commuter trains, freight rail cars, and railway maintenance-of-way machinery. Industries that typically import these goods include transportation, logistics, public transit agencies, and freight companies, all of which rely on efficient rail systems for moving goods and passengers. Importers should be aware of regulatory considerations such as safety standards, environmental compliance, and potential tariffs that may apply, especially if the products are sourced from specific countries. Understanding these aspects is crucial for navigating the complexities of international trade in the railway sector, ensuring compliance with U.S. customs requirements while optimizing supply chain operations.
