HS code 8433.11 is the 6-digit subheading for mowers, lawn, parks or sports-grounds, powered, with the cutting device rotating in a horizontal plane. It is used for gasoline push mowers, electric corded rotary mowers, battery-powered self-propelled mowers, robotic lawn mowers and commercial zero-turn mowers.
What HS 8433.11 covers
This HS code specifically covers powered lawn mowers where the cutting device rotates in a horizontal plane, commonly known as rotary mowers. These machines are widely traded for both professional landscaping and domestic use, making them a staple in suburban and urban environments globally. Importers range from individual consumers and hardware retailers to large landscaping companies and municipalities, all seeking efficient turf maintenance solutions. Exporters are typically countries with strong manufacturing bases for consumer goods and agricultural equipment, often leveraging advanced engine and battery technologies. Key aspects include engine type (gasoline, electric, battery), cutting width, self-propulsion features, and mulching capabilities. The market is significantly driven by seasonal demand, technological advancements in battery life, and increasing consumer preference for eco-friendly options.

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).
