Chapter 40 covers rubber and articles thereof, including natural rubber, synthetic rubber, reclaimed rubber, and various rubber products. This chapter is divided into raw materials (such as raw rubber and unvulcanized rubber) and semi-finished/finished products (such as tires, hoses, belts, etc.). 4011 belongs to the tire category within this chapter and is one of the most important categories of rubber products. Heading 4011 covers new pneumatic rubber tires for motor vehicles, aircraft, motorcycles, bicycles, etc. All tires under this heading are pneumatic and brand new, excluding retreaded tires or solid tires. 4011 is further subdivided into multiple subheadings based on use scenarios. Code 401130 consists of 6 digits: the first 2 digits "40" represent Chapter 40 (rubber and articles thereof); digits 3-4 "11" represent heading 4011 (new pneumatic rubber tires); digits 5-6 "30" represent subheading 401130, specifically new pneumatic rubber tires for aircraft. Therefore, this code precisely identifies brand new pneumatic rubber tires for aircraft. This commodity is a new pneumatic rubber tire for aircraft, which meets the definition of "new pneumatic rubber tires" under heading 4011, and subheading 401130 is explicitly for aircraft use. It should not be classified under other subheadings of 4011 (such as for automobiles or motorcycles), nor under 4012 (retreaded tires) or 4013 (solid tires).

Product Name: The declared commodity name should be accurately described as "new pneumatic rubber tires for aircraft," avoiding colloquial terms such as "airplane tires." Brand: Fill in the brand name of the tire, such as Michelin, Goodyear, etc. If there is no brand, fill in "no brand." Model: Fill in the specification model of the tire, such as H44.5x16.5-20, etc., which should be consistent with the actual goods. Use: Clearly declare use for aircraft, such as "for civil aircraft" or "for military aircraft." Material: Declare the rubber type, such as natural rubber, synthetic rubber, or mixed rubber. Is it new: Declare as "new" tires, not retreaded or used tires. Specifications and Dimensions: Fill in the outer diameter, width, rim diameter, and other dimensional information of the tire. Product Name: New pneumatic rubber tires for aircraft Brand: MICHELIN Model: H44.5x16.5-20 Use: For civil aircraft Material: Natural rubber Is it new: New Specifications and Dimensions: Outer diameter 44.5 inches, width 16.5 inches, rim diameter 20 inches Quantity: 10 pieces Net Weight: 500 kg Origin: France Failure to explicitly declare "new" leads to mistaken classification under retreaded tire code 4012. Use only written as "aviation" without distinguishing civil/military may affect regulatory conditions. False declaration of brand and model leads to customs questioning the accuracy of classification.

The core basis for classification is the "Import and Export Tariff" and "HS Explanatory Notes." Subheading 401130 is explicitly for new pneumatic rubber tires for aircraft. When determining, it is necessary to confirm: 1) the tire is pneumatic; 2) brand new; 3) exclusively for aircraft. If used for other vehicles, classify under other subheadings of 4011. If retreaded or solid, classify under 4012 or 4013. 401110 New pneumatic rubber tires for motor cars: Used for passenger cars (such as sedans), not aircraft. Different use and size standards. 401120 New pneumatic rubber tires for buses or lorries: Used for buses or trucks, not aircraft. Different load capacity and speed ratings. 401140 New pneumatic rubber tires for motorcycles: Used for motorcycles, with obvious differences in size and structure. 401150 New pneumatic rubber tires for bicycles: Used for bicycles, small in size, with low tire pressure requirements. 401170 New pneumatic rubber tires for agricultural or forestry vehicles and machines: Used for agricultural machinery, with special tread patterns and structures. Is it a brand new tire? Is it pneumatic? Is it exclusively for aircraft? Is it not retreaded or solid? Are the brand and model declared accurately?

What is the HS code for new pneumatic rubber tires for aircraft? The HS code for this commodity is 401130, belonging to Chapter 40 rubber and articles thereof, heading 4011 new pneumatic rubber tires, subheading 401130 specifically for aircraft use. How to distinguish 401130 from 401110? 401130 is for aircraft, 401110 is for motor cars. The main difference lies in use: aircraft tires must meet airworthiness standards, and their size and load capacity are far higher than automobile tires. Which code should retreaded aircraft tires be classified under? Retreaded tires should be classified under 4012, with the specific subheading depending on use. 4012 covers retreaded or used pneumatic tires and is not classified as new tires. What special documents are required for declaring 401130? In addition to conventional customs declaration documents, airworthiness certificates (such as FAA or EASA certificates), tire specification sheets, etc., may be required to prove use for aircraft. Does the material of aircraft tires affect classification? No, 401130 covers new pneumatic aircraft tires of all rubber materials, but the rubber type must be indicated during declaration for customs statistics. If aircraft tires are used for military purposes, is the code different? The HS code does not distinguish between civil and military use; both are 401130. However, military use may involve export controls and require additional licenses. How to inquire about the tariff rate for 401130? You can consult the "Import and Export Tariff of the People's Republic of China" or inquire through the General Administration of Customs website or the single window. The tariff rate may vary depending on trade agreements and country of origin. What are the regulatory conditions for 401130? Usually there are no special regulatory conditions, but if it involves civil aircraft, it may need to comply with Civil Aviation Administration regulations; for military use, a military export license is required.
