Heading 8413

Pumps for liquids, whether or not fitted with a measuring device; liquid elevators; part thereof

45 declarable lines

Heading 8413 covers pumps for liquids, whether or not fitted with a measuring device, plus liquid elevators and parts of both. It is split first between measuring-device pumps, hand pumps, engine pumps, concrete pumps, and other positive displacement (reciprocating and rotary) or centrifugal pumps, then by whether the item is a complete pump, a liquid elevator, or a part.

Products in this heading

  • Fuel dispenser pumps used at filling stations
  • Hand-operated water pumps for home or garden use
  • Fuel-injection pumps for diesel engines
  • Submersible well pumps
  • Concrete pumps for construction sites
  • Hydraulic gear pumps for machinery
  • Replacement pump parts such as sucker rods and fluid end blocks
  • Liquid elevators such as bucket elevators for liquids

How to choose the right subheading

  • Decide whether the item is a complete pump, a liquid elevator, or a part, since parts go to 8413.91 or 8413.92.
  • Check whether the pump is designed to be fitted with a measuring device, such as a fuel dispenser with a meter.
  • Identify the operating type: hand pump, reciprocating positive displacement, rotary positive displacement, or centrifugal.
  • For engine pumps, note whether it is a fuel-injection pump for a compression-ignition engine or another fuel, lubricating or cooling pump.
  • For centrifugal pumps, note the number of stages and suction arrangement, and the discharge outlet diameter.

Often confused with

  • Air or vacuum pumps and compressors

    Pumps that move gas or air, not liquid, belong to heading 8414.

  • Taps, cocks and valves

    Valves control flow but do not move liquid, so they are classed in 8481.

    Heading 8481
  • Centrifuges and filtering machinery for liquids

    Separating or filtering liquid is done by 8421 machinery, not by a pump.

    Heading 8421
  • Heat pumps

    Heat pumps move heat through a refrigerant circuit and are named in 8418.

    Heading 8418
  • Internal combustion piston engines

    A complete engine is classed in 8407 or 8408; only its fuel or cooling pump is in 8413.

Frequently asked questions

What is the HTS code for a submersible centrifugal pump?

Submersible centrifugal pumps are classified under 8413.70.20.04. The general (MFN) rate for that line is Free.

What is the duty on fuel-injection pumps for diesel engines?

Fuel-injection pumps for compression-ignition engines fall under 8413.30.10.00. The general (MFN) rate is 2.5%.

How do I classify a hand pump?

Hand pumps other than those fitted with a measuring device are classified under 8413.20.00.00. The general (MFN) rate for that line is Free.
