U.S. exports of chassis fitted with engines for tractors, passenger, goods & special purpose vehicles (HS 870600) totaled $20.9M in July 2026.
Importers of Chassis Fitted with Engines for Tractors, Passenger, Goods & Special Purpose Vehicles paid $1.4M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 15% on $9.3M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataEngine-fitted chassis — the rolling powertrain platform before a body is mounted — are classified under heading 8706 by reference to the type of completed vehicle they are designed to receive, spanning tractors, buses (heading 8702), goods vehicles (heading 8704), passenger cars (heading 8703), and special-purpose vehicles (heading 8705). India leads US imports under this heading, followed by Canada, Italy, the United Kingdom, and Germany, a supplier mix that reflects both volume commercial-vehicle chassis production and premium specialty platforms. The heading's many 10-digit lines (including 8706000300, 8706000540, 8706000575, and others) each tie to a specific downstream vehicle heading, making accurate classification dependent on the intended body application.

The applicable line is determined by the heading of the completed vehicle the chassis is designed to receive — for example, a chassis for a goods transport vehicle maps to a different line than one for a passenger automobile or a special-purpose vehicle. Importers must identify the intended downstream vehicle type and confirm it against the specific 10-digit lines in the US HTS schedule. Manufacturer documentation specifying the chassis's design application is essential supporting evidence.
Yes. Heading 8706 specifically covers chassis fitted with engines, regardless of whether the body is imported separately or built in the US. The chassis is classified on its own merits at the time of importation. However, importers should be aware that subsequent domestic body-mounting does not retroactively change the classification of the chassis entry, and any applicable Section 232 or other trade-remedy measures attach at the time of chassis importation.
