HS Code for Precast concrete

Precast concrete components are classified under HS code 6810.91. This code specifically covers prefabricated structural components for building or civil engineering made from cement, concrete, or artificial stone. These items are manufactured in a controlled factory environment before being transported to a construction site for installation. The classification is determined by the material composition (Chapter 68) and the intended use as a structural element. Whether the concrete is reinforced with steel bars or mesh does not change this classification, as the code explicitly includes both reinforced and non-reinforced prefabricated components. The key factor is that the product is a finished structural part rather than a raw material or a complete building.

Products Included

• Precast concrete beams and columns
• Prefabricated concrete floor slabs
• Concrete bridge sections
• Precast wall panels for buildings
• Concrete piles and foundation elements

Common Misclassification

Which other HS codes get confused with this one and why. Mention specific code numbers. Precast concrete is often confused with HS code 9406.90, which covers prefabricated buildings. If the shipment contains all components to assemble a complete building, 9406.90 is used; however, individual structural components belong in 6810.91. Another confusion is with 6810.11, which is specifically for building blocks and bricks, rather than structural components.
