38 HTS codes in this chapter

Vehicles and transport equipment

Chapters 86 through 89 cover vehicles and transport equipment: railway (86), motor vehicles and parts (87), aircraft and spacecraft (88), and ships and boats (89). The automotive sector is the backbone of Mexico-US trade, with deeply integrated supply chains under USMCA. USMCA automotive rules of origin are the strictest in the world, requiring 75% regional value content, minimum wages for certain production percentages, and specific requirements for steel and aluminum. Correct classification and origin documentation is absolutely critical in this sector.
