U.S. imports of parts & accessories for cash registers and calculating-device machines (HS 847329) totaled $14.4M in August 2026, imported from 44 countries.
Importers of Parts & Accessories for Cash Registers and Calculating-Device Machines paid $1.8M in duties in August 2026, an effective tariff rate of 12.52% of the $14.4M imported — duty actually collected as a share of that value, not the published tariff schedule. Parts & Accessories for Cash Registers and Calculating-Device Machines imports of $14.4M in August 2026 ran 16% above the year-to-date monthly average of $12.4M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataTaiwan leads US imports under this heading, followed by China and Japan, reflecting the concentration of precision electronics manufacturing in East Asia. The heading covers replacement and aftermarket components for cash registers, postage-franking machines, ticket-issuing equipment, and similar devices that incorporate a calculating function — a narrower scope than ADP machine parts. Importers should note that goods from China in this category are subject to Section 301 tariffs, making Taiwan-origin sourcing a common mitigation strategy. The single US tariff line 8473290000 consolidates all such parts, so correct classification against adjacent headings (particularly 8473.30 for ADP parts) is a recurring audit issue.

The key distinction is the principal machine's function: 8473.29 covers parts for machines whose primary purpose involves a calculating device but not general-purpose data processing — such as cash registers, postage meters, and ticket issuers. Parts designed for computers, servers, or peripheral ADP units fall under 8473.30. When a part is equally suitable for both categories, 8473.50 may apply instead.
Yes. Imports from China under this heading are generally subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers sourcing from Taiwan or Japan — the other leading suppliers — should verify country-of-origin rules carefully, as substantial transformation requirements apply when components are assembled or processed in multiple countries before US entry.
