HS Code 4011.30 – Rubber; new pneumatic tyres, of a kind used on aircraft
HS code 4011.30 is the 6-digit subheading for rubber, new pneumatic tyres, of a kind used on aircraft. It is used for commercial aircraft tyres, military aircraft tyres, regional jet tyres, business jet tyres and helicopter tyres.
What HS 4011.30 covers
This highly specialized HS code covers new pneumatic tyres designed exclusively for aircraft. These tyres are engineered to withstand extreme conditions, including high speeds during takeoff and landing, heavy loads, and significant temperature variations, while maintaining structural integrity and performance. International trade in aircraft tyres is a niche but critical market, driven by the global aviation industry, including commercial airlines, cargo carriers, and military aviation. Major importers are countries with large airline fleets, significant aerospace manufacturing, or major maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) facilities, such as the USA, Germany, France, and China. Exporters are a limited number of highly specialized tyre manufacturers, often based in the USA, France, and the UK. Key trade considerations include rigorous certification requirements (e.g., FAA, EASA), adherence to strict safety standards, material composition for durability and weight, and the precise specifications for different aircraft types. The market is influenced by global air travel demand and fleet expansion.

Codes often confused with 4011.30
Common mistake. This code is distinct due to its highly specialized application; however, it could theoretically be confused with other heavy-duty tyres like 401120 (bus/lorry) if the "aircraft" specificity is overlooked, though this is rare given the unique nature.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
