What is HS code 87112013?

These miniature vehicles, commonly known as pocket bikes or mini motos, are designed to resemble full-sized motorcycles but on a significantly reduced scale. They are usually powered by small internal combustion piston engines, falling within the cylinder capacity range of 50 cc to 250 cc, as indicated by their classification under heading 8711. Within Chapter 87, which covers various vehicles, these pocket motorcycles are specifically categorized alongside other two-wheeled motor vehicles, highlighting their nature as personal transport or recreational devices.

For import into Vietnam, correctly classifying pocket motorcycles requires careful attention to their engine displacement and their 'Completely Knocked Down' (CKD) status, as specified by the HS subheading. Importers should ensure that technical specifications, including engine capacity certificates and assembly instructions, are readily available to confirm the vehicle's characteristics and its CKD form. Distinguishing these from other small motorized vehicles or even electric mini-bikes (which would fall under different subheadings) is crucial for accurate customs declaration.

A 75% gap - illustrated on a 100,000 USD shipment, that is roughly 75,000 USD saved in import duty.

But only if the shipment has a valid C/O and meets the rules of origin (RVC/CTC, etc.). The wrong C/O form or an RVC shortfall → duty reassessment and penalties at a post-clearance audit.

* The amount is illustrative only, not a commitment. The % gap comes from Vietnam’s 2026 tariff schedule; the preference actually granted depends on each shipment’s rules of origin.
