Decisions of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CROSS) and HMRC (Advance Tariff Rulings) on goods classified here. A ruling binds only its holder, but shows how the authorities classify similar goods. The descriptions are the authorities’ own, in English.
The European Commission's explanatory notes on how to classify goods in these CN codes. They are not legally binding but customs authorities follow them; they complement the HS Explanatory Notes of the World Customs Organization.
8427 and 8429 · Fork-lift trucks; other works trucks fitted with lifting or handling equipment:
These headings include, self-propelled, wheeled machines, equipped with a telescopic front boom – designed to accommodate various interchangeable tools (such as forks, pallet forks, arms, pliers, shovels) – making them potentially classifiable in headings 8427 or 8429.
Depending on their configuration at the time of the presentation, their classification is determined according to the following principles:
(1) machines presented with a specific interchangeable tool, are classified under the heading corresponding to the function of the machine equipped with that tool. For example, if the machine is presented with a fork-lift, it should be classified under heading 8427. (See also the HS Classification opinion 842720/1.),
(2) machines presented with several interchangeable tools that enable them to perform functions falling under the scope of headings 8427 and 8429, are classified in accordance with Note 3 to Section XVI or by application of General Interpretative Rule 3 (c). (See also the (HSEN) to heading 8426, SELF-PROPELLED AND OTHER “MOBILE” MACHINES (b) (1)),
(3) the same machines presented without any interchangeable tools as mentioned above are classified by application of General Interpretative Rule 3 (c) under heading 8429.
