Last updated: April 2026 dataAirplane and helicopter parts not elsewhere specified form a broad but commercially vital category covering structural, mechanical, and avionics components that do not fall under more specific headings such as engines or undercarriages. FAA airworthiness traceability requirements apply regardless of origin, and many articles in this heading are also subject to dual-use export-control review under the EAR. Trade professionals should pay close attention to the 'not elsewhere specified' boundary: misclassification into or out of this residual heading is a frequent audit finding, particularly for complex assemblies that straddle multiple SITC lines.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
This heading captures airplane and helicopter parts that do not meet the specific descriptions of other headings—such as engines, propellers, or undercarriages. If a component can be classified under a more specific provision, that specific heading takes precedence. Residual 'NES' classification should be confirmed with a licensed customs broker or a binding ruling request to CBP to avoid misclassification penalties.
Certain aircraft parts imported from China may be subject to Section 301 additional duties depending on the specific HTS subheading. Importers should verify the applicable 10-digit HTS classification and check the current Section 301 list, as coverage and rates have been modified through successive USTR actions.
