HS Code 8807.10 – Aircraft and spacecraft; propellers and rotors and parts thereof

HS code 8807.10 is the 6-digit subheading for aircraft and spacecraft, propellers and rotors and parts thereof. It is used for aircraft propellers, helicopter main rotors, tail rotors, propeller blades and rotor blades.

What HS 8807.10 covers

This HS code covers propellers, rotors, and their associated parts for all types of aircraft and spacecraft, ranging from small drones to large commercial airliners and helicopters. These components are critical for propulsion and lift, making them essential in the aerospace supply chain. International trade in these items is robust, driven by the global demand for new aircraft manufacturing, as well as maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations for existing fleets. Key importers include aircraft manufacturers, airlines, MRO facilities, and defense organizations worldwide. Exporters are specialized aerospace component manufacturers, often located in countries with strong aviation industries. The market is characterized by high precision engineering, stringent quality control, and long product lifecycles, with trade often involving complex logistics and compliance with aviation safety standards and certifications.

Common mistake. This code is specific to propellers and rotors. It might be confused with other aircraft parts under 880730 or 880790 if not clearly identifiable as a propeller or rotor component.

Top exporters and importers of HS code 880710, 2025

In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 880710 in UN Comtrade data was the United Kingdom, with 22% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was Saudi Arabia, with 28% of world imports. The United States reports $152.8B of its chapter 88 exports without product detail (confidential), so its figure here may be too low and it may rank higher.

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).
