1) Specialized requirements and processes for customs clearance of agricultural harvesters

Comprehensive review of technical specifications

Specialized requirements and processes for customs clearance of agricultural harvesters Comprehensive review of technical specifications Before starting the import process of agricultural harvesters, conducting a comprehensive and precise review of their technical specifications is of particular importance. The technical specifications must include detailed information about the engine type, engine power (in horsepower or kilowatts), tank capacities (for grain or collected products), hydraulic and electronic control systems, and auxiliary equipment such as harvesting heads, height and width adjustment systems, and modern technologies such as GPS and automatic machine guidance systems. These machines must be compatible with the latest technologies so that they can deliver optimal performance under Iran’s diverse geographical and climatic conditions—from dry and desert areas to humid and fertile regions.

Strict observance of environmental and safety standards

Strict observance of environmental and safety standards Imports of agricultural harvesters to Iran are subject to the strictest environmental and safety standards. Iran’s Department of Environment sets specific standards for imported agricultural machinery, including maximum exhaust emissions, fuel-efficiency requirements, and permissible noise and vibration. Importers are required to prepare valid international certificates related to environmental standards (such as Euro or Tier standards for diesel engines) along with the relevant technical documents and present them to the competent authorities prior to importation. In addition, compliance with safety requirements—such as operator safety and the safety of those present in the work environment—is mandatory and must be demonstrated through CE certificates or other valid international standards.

Compliance with international and national standards

Compliance with international and national standards Customs clearance of harvesting machines from Iranian customs requires full compliance with international and national standards. These standards include a set of global standards such as ISO (for quality and safety), CE (for health and safety in Europe), and other standards related to agricultural equipment. In Iran, imported machinery must be approved by the Institute of Standards and Industrial Research of Iran and must comply with national standards set by the Ministry of Agriculture Jihad. This compliance includes technical requirements, performance, energy efficiency, and compatibility with Iran’s specific climatic and geographic conditions.

Related customs tariffs and HS codes

Related customs tariffs and HS codes Agricultural harvesters fall under specific customs tariffs that vary based on the type and technology level used. One of the most important HS Codes for these machines is HS Code 84335100, which is dedicated to harvesting and/or threshing machines. This code is part of the global Harmonized System used to identify and classify goods in international trade. Accurate and precise entry of this code in the customs declaration is essential to prevent any issues during clearance. Failure to enter the correct code may result in delays or incorrect tariffs.

Required documents and permits for clearance

For customs clearance of agricultural harvesters, importers need to submit a set of legal documents and permits, including:
Environmental standard certificates: such as certificates of compliance with emission and fuel-consumption standards.
Technical certificates: including technical documents that describe the performance specifications of the machines and prove their compliance with the set standards.
Order registration and proforma invoice: indicating the purchase and payment for the machines.
Permits from the Ministry of Agriculture Jihad: for some advanced or specialized machines, obtaining specific permits from this ministry is mandatory. These may include technical approvals or special import permits.
Certificates of compliance with national and international standards: such as ISO, CE, or other certificates related to quality and safety standards.

Special import and export conditions

Special import and export conditions for harvester machines Import conditions:
Importing harvesters to Iran is affected by various factors, including legal restrictions, changes in customs tariffs, and the need to comply with environmental and safety standards. In some cases, harvesters with advanced and specific technologies require special permits and more detailed technical reviews.
Exports from Iran: Iran is not mainly an exporter of harvesters, but parts and related accessories may be exported to neighboring countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan.

Exporting and importing countries

Exporting and importing countries of harvesters Exporting countries to Iran:
The main harvesters are imported to Iran from countries such as China, Germany, the United States, and Japan. These countries dominate Iran’s harvester market due to their advanced and efficient machinery.
Importing countries from Iran: As mentioned, Iran is more of an importer of harvesters, and exports are limited to some parts and accessories that are exported to neighboring countries.

Trade volume and global turnover

Import volumes to Iran are increasing due to mechanization needs and agricultural modernization; however, economic conditions and sanctions may affect volumes. On the other hand, the global harvester market is expanding due to population growth and the need for higher food production, and its value is continuously rising.
