Last updated: August 2026 dataA residual heading capturing motorized two- and three-wheeled vehicles that do not fit the engine-displacement or electric-motor subheadings, as well as sidecars. In the US schedule, 8711900100 is the sole 10-digit line, covering a heterogeneous mix of low-displacement combustion-engine cycles, hybrid configurations, and sidecar units. China is the primary supplier, with Poland and New Zealand also appearing — an unusual geographic spread that reflects the niche, specialty nature of sidecar and non-standard cycle imports. Correct classification requires ruling out all other 8711 subheadings before landing here.

Sidecars are explicitly named in heading 8711 and are classified under the NESOI subheading 8711900100 when imported separately. If the sidecar is imported already attached to a motorcycle, the combined unit is classified by the motorcycle's engine type and displacement. A binding ruling from CBP is advisable for novel or hybrid configurations.
Because the NESOI line is a catch-all, CBP may request detailed technical specifications — engine type, displacement, motor output, and intended use — to confirm that the article does not belong in a more specific subheading. Providing a manufacturer's specification sheet and, where applicable, an EPA emissions compliance statement helps prevent delays at entry.
