BTI (Binding Tariff Information) is an official EU customs decision confirming the classification of goods. Valid for 3 years, binding across all EU member states.

Definition and scope of CN subheading 842191

CN subheading 842191 covers parts for centrifuges classified under subheadings 842111 to 842119, including parts for dairy centrifuges, centrifugal clothes dryers and other industrial centrifuges. This subheading includes rotors (drums), centrifuge housings, covers, drive shafts, specialist bearings, separation nozzles, sealing elements and other components specifically designed for centrifuges. Classification follows the General Rules for the Interpretation (GRI), particularly rule 1 and Note 2 to Section XVI of the CN. Parts of general use such as standard rolling bearings, bolts and springs are classified under their own CN headings. Electric motors driving centrifuges are classified under heading 8501. For borderline cases a BTI ruling is recommended.

Import requirements for centrifuge parts (842191)

Importing centrifuge parts under subheading 842191 into the EU is subject to the Union Customs Code. The importer must hold an EORI number and file a customs declaration with the correct CN code. Import documentation should precisely describe the part, indicating the target centrifuge type, function and material. Rotors and shafts for high-speed centrifuges may be subject to special quality requirements for dynamic balancing and centrifugal force resistance. Parts for dairy centrifuges in contact with milk must comply with Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004. Construction materials are subject to REACH requirements. MFN and preferential rates should be verified in TARIC. Proof of origin is required for preferential treatment.

Identification and classification of centrifuge parts (842191)

Correct classification of centrifuge parts under subheading 842191 requires accurate identification of the part and its intended use. Rotors are the most valuable and critical spare parts for centrifuges. Housings and covers ensure structural integrity and operational safety. Drive shafts transmit torque from the motor to the rotor. Separation nozzles in dairy centrifuges direct the separated fraction streams. Mechanical seals prevent media leaks. Distinguishing specific parts from parts of general use is essential. Standard rolling bearings are classified under 848210 and V-belts under heading 4010. The importer should hold manufacturer documentation confirming the part purpose. Duty rates for parts may differ from rates on complete centrifuges.

Parts of centrifuges - Machinery Directive and EN standards

CN code 8421 91 covers parts of centrifuges. Import requires Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and relevant EN safety standards compliance. Customs clearance requires CE certificate, technical documentation and manufacturer's declaration of conformity. TARIC duty rates depend on the country of origin. Importers should verify applicable duty rates in the TARIC database and ensure all documentation is complete.

Frequently asked questions

What centrifuge parts does subheading 842191 cover?
Subheading 842191 covers parts specifically designed for centrifuges under subheadings 842111-842119, including rotors, housings, covers, drive shafts, separation nozzles and mechanical seals. Parts of general use such as standard rolling bearings, bolts and springs are classified under their own CN headings.
Do centrifuge rotors under subheading 842191 require certificates?
Rotors as critical safety components of centrifuges may require dynamic balancing certificates and strength test reports. Rotors for dairy centrifuges must additionally comply with food-contact requirements. Manufacturer documentation should confirm technical parameters and the rotor intended use with a specific centrifuge type.
How to classify bearings for centrifuges under the customs tariff?
Standard rolling bearings for centrifuges are classified under subheading 848210 as parts of general use regardless of their intended use with a centrifuge. Bearings specially designed exclusively for centrifuges whose construction precludes other use may be classified under 842191. In practice most bearings are parts of general use classified in Chapter 84.
What are the import requirements for parts of centrifuges CN 8421 91?
Importing parts of centrifuges CN 8421 91 requires Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC compliance, CE marking and declaration of conformity. TARIC sets the duty rates. Additional sector-specific requirements may apply.
