## How it is structured

8479.30 is a six-digit subheading. Its first two digits, 84, are the chapter; the first four, 8479, are heading 84.79; the last two, 30, identify the subheading within the heading.

Countries add their own digits after these six for their national tariff lines.

- Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof
- Heading 84.79: Machines and mechanical appliances having individual functions, not specified or included elsewhere in this Chapter
- Subheading 8479.30: Presses for the manufacture of particle board or fibre building board of wood or other ligneous materials and other machinery for treating wood or cork

## In other countries

No national tariff lines under 8479.30 are live on border.bot yet. Tariffs built on the Harmonized System (HS2022) use 8479.30 at six digits and add their own digits after it.
