Last updated: April 2026 dataMexico and Canada are the dominant suppliers of goods-transport trailers and semi-trailers under this heading, consistent with the highly integrated North American commercial vehicle supply chain. The US schedule subdivides the heading into six distinct 10-digit lines covering agricultural trailers (8716390010), trailers for industrial vehicles of heading 8709 (8716390020), trailers for passenger-vehicle platforms of heading 8703 (8716390030), van-type trailers (8716390040), platform trailers (8716390050), and a residual goods-transport category (8716390090). Correct classification hinges on the trailer's design purpose and the type of towing vehicle it is engineered to serve.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
A van-type trailer has an enclosed body — typically with walls, a roof, and doors — designed to protect cargo from the elements. A platform trailer has a flat or skeletal deck without permanent enclosing sides or roof, used for oversized, heavy, or containerized loads. The structural design of the cargo-carrying body, not the cargo itself, determines which line applies.
Trailers qualifying as originating goods under USMCA may be eligible for preferential tariff treatment, provided they meet the applicable rules of origin, including regional value content and tariff classification change requirements. Importers should obtain a valid USMCA certification of origin from the manufacturer and confirm eligibility with a licensed customs broker before claiming the preference.
