Product classification
HS code for Washing machine with dryer: 8450.12
Washing machines, household or laundry-type, with built-in centrifugal drier, (not fully-automatic), of a dry linen capacity not exceeding 10kg.
Classification of washing machine with dryer under HS 8450.12
Washing machines equipped with a built-in centrifugal dryer are classified under HS code 8450.12 when they meet specific technical criteria. Chapter 84 includes nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery, and mechanical appliances. Heading 8450 covers household or laundry-type washing machines, including those which both wash and dry. Subheading 8450.12 is specifically for machines with a dry linen capacity not exceeding 10 kg that are not fully automatic but include a centrifugal dryer. This often refers to twin-tub models where the washing and spinning functions may be separate or require manual intervention to move clothes between cycles. The classification depends heavily on the dry weight capacity and the level of automation. If the machine were fully automatic, meaning it performs the wash, rinse, and spin cycles without manual intervention, it would move to a different subheading. This code is essential for identifying semi-automatic laundry equipment used in residential or light commercial settings.

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).
