Armored fighting vehicles and their components are generally controlled under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) administered by the State Department's Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC). Importers typically require a DDTC import authorization, and the exporting country may also require an export license. CBP coordinates with DDTC on these entries, and unauthorized imports can result in seizure and significant penalties.
Parts classified under 8710000090 must be specifically designed or adapted for armored fighting vehicles of heading 8710. General-purpose automotive components that happen to be installed on an armored vehicle — such as standard commercial tires or generic fasteners — are typically classified under their own specific headings rather than under 871000. The key test is whether the part is purpose-designed for military armored vehicle use.
