Product classification
HS code for Aircraft wings: 8807.30
Aircraft and spacecraft, parts of aeroplanes, helicopters or unmanned aircraft n.e.c. in heading no. 8807.
Classification of aircraft wings under HS 8807.30
Aircraft wings are classified under HS code 8807.30, which covers parts of aeroplanes, helicopters, or unmanned aircraft. This code is part of Chapter 88, which encompasses aircraft, spacecraft, and parts thereof. Wings are considered essential structural components of an aircraft, providing the necessary lift for flight. The classification follows the principle that parts specifically designed for use solely or principally with the machines of Chapter 88 are classified within that chapter, provided they are not excluded by Section XVII notes. As wings are primary aerodynamic surfaces unique to aircraft, they fall squarely into the subheadings for aircraft parts rather than general metal or composite material headings. The classification remains consistent whether the wing is made of aluminum, titanium, or advanced carbon-fiber composites, as the function as an aircraft part is the primary determinant under the Harmonized System rules.

Codes often confused with 8807.30
Common mistake. Which other HS codes get confused with this one and why. Mention specific code numbers. Aircraft wings are sometimes misclassified under 7616 if they are made of aluminum, as this code covers other articles of aluminum. However, because they are identifiable parts of aircraft, Chapter 88 takes precedence. Another common error is using 8802, which is for complete aircraft; parts must be classified under 8807. Prior to 2022, these parts were often classified under 8803, but the HS 2022 update moved aircraft parts to the new 8807 heading.
Top exporters and importers of HS 880730 (the code used for aircraft wings), 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS 880730 (the code used for aircraft wings) in UN Comtrade data was the United Kingdom, with 16% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was the United States, with 17% of world imports. The United States reports $152.8B of its chapter 88 exports without product detail (confidential), so it may also belong among the top exporters.

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).

Questions about aircraft wings
What is the HS code for Aircraft wings?
The HS code for Aircraft wings is 880730 (Aircraft and spacecraft; parts of aeroplanes, helicopters or unmanned aircraft n.e.c. in heading no. 8807). The HS code for aircraft wings and their primary structural components is 8807.30.
How do I classify Aircraft wings for customs?
Aircraft wings is classified under HS code 880730 — Aircraft and spacecraft; parts of aeroplanes, helicopters or unmanned aircraft n.e.c. in heading no. 8807. This is a 6-digit subheading level code.
Are wing-mounted engines included in this code?
No, aircraft engines are classified separately under heading 8411 (turbojets and turbopropellers) or 8407 (spark-ignition internal combustion engines), as engines are specifically excluded from the general parts heading for aircraft.
Which countries are the top exporters of aircraft wings (HS 880730)?
In 2025, the top exporters of HS 880730 (the code used for aircraft wings) in UN Comtrade data were the United Kingdom ($12.2B, 16% of world exports), Germany ($11.9B) and France ($8.8B). World exports came to about $77.7B, adding countries' reported figures and partner-based estimates for those that did not report (UN Comtrade data). The United States reports $152.8B of its chapter 88 exports without product detail (confidential), so it may also belong among the top exporters.
Which countries are the top importers of aircraft wings (HS 880730)?
In 2025, the top importers of HS 880730 (the code used for aircraft wings) in UN Comtrade data were the United States ($14.7B, 17% of world imports), France ($11.9B) and Germany ($10.7B). World imports came to about $86.2B, adding countries' reported figures and partner-based estimates for those that did not report (UN Comtrade data). Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.
