Product classification
HS code for Mouse: 8471.60
Units of automatic data processing machines, input or output units, whether or not containing storage units in the same housing.
Classification of mouse under HS 8471.60
A computer mouse is classified under HS code 8471.60. This classification is governed by Chapter 84, which includes nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery, and mechanical appliances. Heading 8471 specifically covers automatic data processing (ADP) machines and units thereof. Within this heading, subheading 8471.60 is designated for input or output units, whether or not containing storage units in the same housing. A mouse is fundamentally an input device that allows a user to control a cursor and interact with a computer's graphical user interface. This code applies to various types of pointing devices, including traditional wired mice, wireless optical mice, and trackballs, provided they are designed to work with an ADP machine. The classification is based on the device's function as a peripheral unit that facilitates the input of data or commands into a central processing unit. Even if the mouse uses Bluetooth or other wireless technologies, it remains classified here as an input unit for a computer system.

Codes often confused with 8471.60
Common mistake. Mice are sometimes misclassified under 8517 if they are wireless, due to their radio frequency components, but 8471.60 is the more specific code for computer input units. Another common error is using 9504.50, which is for video game consoles and controllers. While a gaming mouse is used for games, it is designed for use with a computer (ADP machine) and thus stays in 8471.60. Only controllers dedicated solely to game consoles should be in 9504. Additionally, if a mouse is imported as part of a complete laptop system, it is classified under 8471.30.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. 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).
