What decides the code
Door hinges of base metal are classified under heading 8302, with steel hinges for interior and exterior doors in 8302.10.60.30.
- The hinge is made of base metal, which places it in heading 8302 as a mounting or fitting.
- The hinge is of iron or steel, which leads to the steel subheading under 8302.10.
- The hinge is suitable for interior and exterior doors, which fits the door-specific line 8302.10.60.30.
- A hinge for garage, overhead or sliding doors falls outside this line and takes a different line under 8302.10.
Common mistakes
- Classifying steel door hinges under 8302.41 is wrong because that line covers builders' hardware for buildings, not hinges of heading 8302.
- Putting door hinges in 7318 as iron or steel screws, bolts or similar fasteners is wrong because hinges are mountings, not threaded fasteners.
- Classifying hinges under 8302.30 as other mountings for motor vehicles is wrong because these hinges are for building doors, not coachwork.
