HS Code 853690: Other apparatus in Canada

Q: What is HS code 853690 in Canada?

HS code 853690 covers Other apparatus in Canada. It sits in Chapter 85 (Electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof; sound recordersand reproducers, television image and sound recorders and reproducers, and parts andaccessories of such articles), Heading 8536 of the Harmonized System, and is classified under Canada HS.

Q: Is HS code 853690 the same across all countries?

Yes — up to the 6-digit level, HS code 853690 is the same in every WCO member country. Beyond 6 digits, each country extends the code for national tariff and statistical use. Canada extends it under Canada HS.

Q: What system does Canada use to classify HS code 853690?

Canada classifies products under the Customs Tariff of Canada (Canada HS; locally Tarif des douanes du Canada), which extends HS codes to 10 digits. The first 6 digits align with the WCO Harmonized System, and the rest cover national tariff and statistical needs.
