HS Code 8607.12 – Railway or tramway locomotives or rolling stock; parts, bogies and bissel-bogies (excluding driving bogies and bissel-bogies)
HS code 8607.12 is the 6-digit subheading for railway or tramway locomotives or rolling stock, parts, bogies and bissel-bogies (excluding driving bogies and bissel-bogies). It is used for passenger coach bogies, freight wagon bogies, trailer bogies for EMUs/DMUs, non-powered locomotive bogies and suspension systems for bogies.
What HS 8607.12 covers
This HS code encompasses non-driving bogies and bissel-bogies for railway and tramway locomotives and rolling stock. These components are crucial for supporting the vehicle's weight, guiding it along the tracks, and providing suspension for a smooth ride, without contributing to propulsion. They are integral to passenger coaches, freight wagons, and non-powered sections of locomotives. International trade in these parts is driven by the global demand for new rolling stock construction, as well as the extensive maintenance and repair cycles of existing fleets. Importers include rolling stock manufacturers, rail operators, and maintenance workshops worldwide, particularly in regions expanding their rail networks. Exporters are specialized engineering companies and large-scale manufacturers with expertise in heavy fabrication and precision machining. Key factors influencing trade are design specifications, load capacity, suspension systems, and compliance with national and international rail safety standards.

Codes often confused with 8607.12
Common mistake. This code specifically excludes *driving* bogies (860711) and should not be confused with them, nor with 860719 which covers individual axles and wheels rather than complete bogie assemblies.

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).
