Bodies; (including cabs) for the motor vehicles of heading no. 8701 to 8705
HS 8707 — Bodies; (including cabs) for the motor vehicles of heading no. 8701 to 8705 — sits in Chapter 87 (Vehicles other than railway or tramway). Cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, bicycles, tractors, and auto parts. EU importers pay MFN duty plus import VAT at the border; origin-specific trade remedies (anti-dumping, countervailing, safeguards, US Section 301) can stack on top when applicable. Classification disputes are decided by the section + chapter legal notes shown below — these are legally binding interpretation rules, not advisory text. The duty table renders live rates from authoritative tariff sources (EU TARIC, HMRC XI, USITC HTS); cross-country rows compare treatment under five tariff schedules.

Tariff changes, sanctions, FTAs, and regulatory updates that touch this product class.
US reviews hand-truck antidumping duty on China imports
The U.S. International Trade Commission has scheduled an expedited five-year review of the antidumping duty order on hand trucks from China, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930. The review will determine whether revoking the order would likely lead to continued or recurring material injury to U.S. producers. Hand-truck importers and distributors should monitor the review timeline and prepare for potential duty-rate changes or order revocation.
US adds countervailing duties on Mexican van-type trailers
The U.S. Department of Commerce issued a preliminary affirmative countervailing duty (CVD) determination on van-type trailers and subassemblies from Mexico, effective for the period January 1–December 31, 2024. Commerce found that Mexican producers and exporters of these trailers receive countervailable subsidies. The final determination will align with the final antidumping duty investigation. Importers of Mexican van-type trailers now face potential CVD liability retroactively to the POI start date.
US terminates countervailing duty investigation on Canadian van-type trailers
The U.S. Department of Commerce has terminated its countervailing duty investigation into van-type trailers and subassemblies from Canada, following a withdrawal of the petition by the American Trailer Manufacturers Coalition. The termination means Canadian van-type trailer imports will no longer face countervailing duty proceedings, removing a significant trade barrier for this product category.
US opens countervailing duty case on Chinese van-type trailers
The U.S. Department of Commerce has issued a preliminary affirmative countervailing duty (CVD) determination against van-type trailers and subassemblies from China, covering the investigation period January 1–December 31, 2024. The determination finds that countervailable subsidies are being provided to Chinese producers and exporters. This is the first step in a formal CVD investigation; Commerce will issue a final determination later. Interested parties, including importers, domestic producers, and exporters, can submit comments on the preliminary finding.
