U.S. imports of Parts of Railway & Tramway Rolling Stock (Excluding Locomotives, NESOI) (HS 860799) totaled $26.1M in August 2026, imported from 36 countries.
Importers of Parts of Railway & Tramway Rolling Stock (Excluding Locomotives, NESOI) paid $6.1M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 23.23% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataResidual parts for passenger coaches, freight wagons, and other non-locomotive rolling stock — including items such as bogie frames, suspension components, and interior fittings not captured by more specific subheadings — fall under heading 860799. The US schedule splits coverage between parts for vehicles of headings 8605/8606 (8607991000) and other rolling stock parts (8607995000). Japan leads US imports under this heading, a reflection of that country's advanced rail manufacturing sector, with Canada and Mexico also prominent. The breadth of the NESOI catch-all makes correct classification relative to adjacent subheadings (brakes, couplings, axles) a frequent point of inquiry.

NESOI (not elsewhere specified or included) means the part does not fit a more specific subheading within heading 8607 — such as axles (860710), brakes (860721/860729), or couplings (860730). Importers should work through the subheadings in order, confirming the part's function and the vehicle type it serves, before defaulting to the 860799 NESOI provisions. A binding ruling is advisable for novel or multi-function components.
Japan's rail manufacturing industry produces precision components — including bogie assemblies, suspension systems, and specialized interior fittings — that meet the exacting standards of US transit authorities. Japanese suppliers have long-standing relationships with US commuter and light-rail operators, which sustains consistent import flows even for parts not covered by a bilateral free trade agreement.
