Chapter 82 covers hand tools, portable forges, grinding stones, tweezers, knives, forks, spoons, and mechanical appliances not elsewhere specified, all made of base metal. Tools of this chapter are generally used for manual operation; even if they incorporate simple mechanical devices (such as hand drills), they remain classified in this chapter. However, power-operated tools or machine tools are classified in Chapter 84. The core characteristics are: made of base metal, hand-held, non-electric. Heading 8207 includes hand tools (whether or not mechanically operated) and tools for machine tools, specifically: drilling, tapping, reaming, milling, turning, and similar tools. However, heading 8207 is limited to the tools themselves and does not include machine tools. Drilling tools include twist drills, flat drills, center drills, etc., whether or not tipped with carbide. First 2 digits 82 = base metal tools, implements, cutlery, spoons; digits 3-4: 07 = hand tools (whether or not mechanically operated) or tools for machine tools; digits 5-6: 50 = drilling tools. Subheading 8207.50 specifically refers to tools for drilling, including twist drills, flat drills, center drills, etc., regardless of material (high-speed steel, carbide, etc.) and regardless of coating. The goods are drilling tools, belonging to hand tools or tools for machine tools made of base metal, meeting the scope of 8207. They are not classified under 8205 (other hand tools) because 8205 does not include drilling tools; they are not classified under 8467 (electric tools) because 8467 covers electric or pneumatic tools themselves, whereas 8207 covers tool tips or hand tools.

Product Name: Declare the specific product name, such as "twist drill bit," "center drill," etc. Avoid generic terms like "drilling tool." Brand: Fill in the manufacturer or brand name; if no brand, write "unbranded." Material: Declare the main material of the tool, such as high-speed steel, carbon steel, carbide, etc. Whether Carbide-Tipped: If the tool is tipped with carbide, explicitly declare "Yes"; otherwise fill in "No." Use: Specify the material to be drilled, such as metal, wood, concrete, etc. Model: Fill in the product model for easy identification of specific specifications. Whether Electric: Declare whether the tool is electric; fill in "No" for hand tools; electric tools should be classified under 8467. Product Name: High-speed steel twist drill bit; Brand: ABC; Material: High-speed steel; Whether Carbide-Tipped: No; Use: For drilling metal; Model: D10*100; Whether Electric: No. Mistakenly classifying electric tools under 8207, when they should be under 8467. Failing to distinguish manual from power-operated tools, leading to classification errors. Ignoring material declaration, affecting subheading subdivision.

Classification basis: According to the Import and Export Tariff and its notes, 8207 includes hand tools and tools for machine tools; drilling tools are classified under 8207.50. Key determinations: 1) Whether made of base metal; 2) Whether used for drilling; 3) Whether manual or for machine tools. If it is an electric tool itself, classify under 8467; if it is another hand tool, classify under 8205. 8205 Other hand tools: 8205 includes hammers, saws, screwdrivers, etc., but does not include drilling tools. Drilling tools are specifically listed under 8207. 8467 Portable electric tools: 8467 covers complete electric or pneumatic tools, such as electric drills; 8207 covers tool tips or manual drill bits. 8209 Tool tips, unmounted: 8209 covers unmounted tool tips, such as carbide inserts, which need to be mounted on tools; 8207 covers assembled or complete drilling tools. 8482 Bearings: Bearings are used to support rotating shafts and have different functions from drilling tools. Is it made of base metal? Is it used for drilling? Is it manual or for machine tools? Is it a complete electric tool? Is the tool tip assembled?

What drilling tools are specifically included under HS code 820750? Includes twist drills, flat drills, center drills, reamers, etc., regardless of material (high-speed steel, carbide) and regardless of coating. However, it does not include electric drilling machines (8467) or unmounted tool tips (8209). How to distinguish between 820750 and 8205? 8205 covers other hand tools such as hammers, saws, screwdrivers, etc., while 820750 specifically refers to drilling tools. If the tool is primarily used for drilling, classify under 820750; if used for other purposes, classify under 8205. Which code should electric drill bits be classified under? If the electric drill is a complete machine, classify under 8467; if it is only a drill bit accessory (such as a replacement drill bit), it remains under 820750. The key is whether it has an electric device. How should the material be filled in during declaration? It should be filled in specifically, such as high-speed steel, carbon steel, carbide, etc. If it is a composite material, indicate the main material. Avoid generic terms like "metal." How are carbide-tipped drill bits classified? They remain under 820750, but during declaration, "carbide-tipped" must be indicated for customs statistics and valuation. What are the customs regulatory conditions for drilling tools? Generally, there are no special regulations, but if export control is involved (such as high-tech drill bits), a license is required. Specifics are subject to the latest customs announcements. How to check the tariff rate for 820750? You can check the latest tariff rate by entering the HS code on the General Administration of Customs website, tariff query platforms, or by consulting a customs broker. Note that rates may change. What is the difference in declaration between manual drill bits and electric drill bits? For manual drill bits, fill in "No" for "Whether Electric" and classify under 820750; for complete electric drills, fill in "Yes" and classify under 8467. Accessory drill bits remain under 820750.
