HS Code 8413.20 – Pumps; hand, fitted or designed to be fitted with a measuring device, for liquids, other than those of item no. 8413.11 or 8413.19

HS code 8413.20 is the 6-digit subheading for pumps, hand, fitted or designed to be fitted with a measuring device, for liquids, other than those of item no. 8413.11 or 8413.19. It is used for hand-operated barrel pumps with meters, manual drum pumps with flow indicators, lever-action oil pumps with measuring cups, hand-crank fuel transfer pumps with meters and syphon pumps with volume indicators.

What HS 8413.20 covers

This HS code specifically identifies hand-operated pumps equipped with a measuring device, excluding the more specialized fuel/lubricant dispensers (841311) and other industrial liquid pumps with measuring devices (841319). This niche category serves applications where portability, manual operation, and precise measurement are required, often in situations without readily available power or for smaller-scale operations. Importers include agricultural suppliers, small workshops, laboratories, and emergency services. Exporters are typically manufacturers specializing in manual fluid handling equipment. The trade emphasizes robustness, ease of use, accuracy for manual operation, and material compatibility with various liquids. These pumps are crucial for tasks like transferring small volumes of chemicals, oils, or water with a need for measured dispensing, often in remote or field environments. Their simplicity and independence from power sources make them valuable in specific, often less industrialized, contexts or for backup systems.

Codes often confused with 8413.20

Common mistake. The key differentiator for this code is "hand-operated" and "with a measuring device," distinguishing it from powered pumps with measuring devices (841311, 841319) and hand pumps without measuring devices (e.g., some under 841381).

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. 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).
