The applicable subheading for the used lift trucks will be 8427.20.8000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for other self-propelled works trucks fitted with lifting or handling equipment. The rate of duty will be Free.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Patrick Wholey at 646-733-3013.
