Classification of utility tractor under HS 8701.93
Utility tractors with an engine power exceeding 37kW but not exceeding 75kW are classified under HS code 8701.93. This classification falls under Chapter 87, which governs vehicles other than railway or tramway rolling-stock. The heading 8701 is dedicated to tractors, defined as vehicles constructed essentially for hauling or pushing another vehicle, appliance, or load. The sub-classification 8701.93 is strictly determined by the net engine power, measured in kilowatts. This range typically encompasses mid-sized utility tractors used in professional landscaping, municipal maintenance, and medium-scale agricultural operations. The classification remains consistent regardless of whether the tractor is equipped with a Power Take-Off (PTO) or a three-point hitch, provided the primary function is traction rather than the transport of goods or persons.

Codes often confused with 8701.93
Common mistake. The most common misclassification occurs with HS code 8701.92 (tractors 18kW to 37kW) or 8701.94 (tractors 75kW to 130kW). Precise engine specification sheets are required to distinguish between these. Additionally, utility tractors are sometimes confused with 8429.51 (front-end shovel loaders) if they have a permanent loader attachment; however, if the loader is removable and the vehicle is designed for traction, 8701.93 is correct.

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).
