HS Code 8414.10 – Pumps; vacuum
HS code 8414.10 is the 6-digit subheading for pumps, vacuum. It is used for rotary vane vacuum pumps, turbomolecular pumps, diffusion pumps, cryopumps and ion pumps.
What HS 8414.10 covers
This HS code is dedicated to vacuum pumps, essential devices used to remove gas molecules from a sealed volume, creating a partial vacuum. These pumps are critical across a vast array of high-tech and industrial applications, including semiconductor manufacturing, scientific research, food packaging, medical equipment, and metallurgy. Major importers and exporters are technologically advanced nations such as Germany, Japan, the USA, China, and South Korea, which have robust manufacturing sectors requiring precise vacuum environments. The trade in vacuum pumps is driven by innovation in electronics, pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials, where controlled atmospheres are paramount. Key considerations include the type of vacuum pump (e.g., rotary vane, turbomolecular, cryogenic), its ultimate vacuum level, pumping speed, and application-specific requirements for cleanliness and reliability.

Codes often confused with 8414.10
Common mistake. Vacuum pumps can sometimes be confused with general air compressors under 841480 if their primary function of creating a vacuum rather than compressing gas is not clearly distinguished.
Top exporters and importers of HS code 841410, 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 841410 in UN Comtrade data was Germany, with 20% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was China, with 15% of world imports. Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.

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).
