U.S. exports of trucks & goods transport vehicles (nesoi) (HS 870490) totaled $13.8M in August 2026.
Importers of Trucks & Goods Transport Vehicles (NESOI) paid $195K in duties in August 2026, an effective tariff rate of 5.80% of the $3.4M imported — duty actually collected as a share of that value, not the published tariff schedule. Trucks & Goods Transport Vehicles (NESOI) imports of $3.4M in August 2026 ran 30% above the year-to-date monthly average of $2.6M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataSubject to Section 232 tariff exposure as motor vehicles, goods transport vehicles not elsewhere specified under heading 8704 enter the US under a single 10-digit line (8704900100), covering a broad range of non-standard configurations that don't fit diesel or gasoline GVW breakouts. Mexico and Canada dominate supply, reflecting deep North American automotive integration, while Australia, China, and Thailand round out the supplier base. Importers should confirm that the vehicle's primary design function is goods transport rather than passenger carriage, as misclassification between headings 8703 and 8704 is a common audit trigger.

Classification hinges on the vehicle's principal design purpose. CBP examines objective features such as payload capacity, seating configuration, cargo area dimensions, and structural design. A vehicle primarily engineered for goods transport belongs under 8704; one principally designed for passenger carriage falls under 8703. When the distinction is ambiguous, a binding ruling request to CBP is advisable before importation.
Certain motor vehicles and parts are subject to Section 232 national-security tariff proceedings. Importers should verify the current status of any applicable Section 232 measures and confirm whether their specific vehicle configuration and country of origin are covered before filing entry.
