HTS tariff line · chapter 87
8711.30.00
With internal combustion piston engine of a cylinder capacity exceeding 250 cc but not exceeding 500 cc
Analysis
HTS 8711.30.00 covers with internal combustion piston engine of a cylinder capacity exceeding 250 cc but not exceeding 500 cc under heading 8711 (motorcycles (including mopeds) and cycles fitted with an auxiliary motor, with or without…). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 3 ten-digit suffixes, reported in number of items.
This line's footnotes point to one additional provision in Chapter 99: 9903.90.08 (measures on products of Russia). Chapter 99 duties are added on top of the general rate for goods of the countries they name, and they change more often than the rest of the schedule, so check the current CBP guidance before you rely on a total.
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 2.4%. Compared with 8711.50.00 (with internal combustion piston engine of a cylinder capacity…), which pays 2.4%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 2.4 percentage points.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 47% of the 212 tariff lines in chapter 87, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.
