Coin mechanisms and payment terminals designed exclusively for use in vending machines are generally classifiable as parts under 8476900000. However, multi-purpose payment terminals (e.g., point-of-sale readers used across retail applications) may instead fall under heading 8470 or 8543. The key test is whether the component is dedicated to vending machine use or has broader applicability.
Yes. Parts of automatic vending machines imported from China under 8476900000 are subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers sourcing from China should review current exclusion lists and consider whether alternative supply from Mexico — a significant source under this heading — could reduce tariff exposure while maintaining supply continuity.
