Bicycles without a motor take heading 8712 of the US tariff, where a single eight-digit structure sorts them by wheel size and then by construction and weight. Small-wheel bikes, with both wheels not over 63.5 cm, on 8712.00.15 print 11%. A bike with larger wheels weighing less than 16.3 kg complete, on 8712.00.25, prints 5.5%, and others on 8712.00.35 print 11%. That split means a lighter frame can halve the ordinary rate. These lines all show List 3: +25% for Chinese goods, so $10,000 of those lighter bikes comes to $4,300 (43%) from China, against $1,000 (10%) from Taiwan, whose country duty is a total of 10% that includes ordinary duty, and $1,800 (18%) from Vietnam. Parts are in heading 8714, which has its own lines. Motorized bikes take 8711 instead. Read in 2026 HTS Revision 22 on November 2, 2026.

Wheel size, then weight
Measure the wheels to the outer edge of the tire, as additional U.S. note 2 says, and check the cross-section rules in lines such as 8712.00.25, which depend on the tire’s diameter. Bikes with a front wheel smaller than the back take 8712.00.44 at 5.5% if light enough. Other cycles such as tricycles fall on 8712.00.50 at 3.7%. Heading 8712 names delivery tricycles, among other cycles.
