HS code for Cordless drill, lithium battery
HS 2022Destination GBConfidence 0.92Tools for working in the hand, pneumatic, hydraulic or with self-contained electric or non-electric motor > With self-contained electric motor > Drills of all kinds
Section XVI: Machinery and mechanical appliances; electrical equipment; parts thereof, sound recorders and reproducers, television image and sound recorders and reproducers, and parts and accessories of such articles · Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof · Heading 8467: Tools for working in the hand, pneumatic, hydraulic or with self-contained electric or non-electric motor
Why this code
The product is a hand-held cordless drill with a self-contained electric motor powered by a lithium battery. Heading 8467 covers tools for working in the hand with a self-contained electric motor. Subheading 846721 covers 'drills of all kinds' with a self-contained electric motor, which matches. The battery and charger are a power source and accessory, not the motor, so they do not change the classification. The drill is not a chainsaw, saw, or interchangeable bit (8207), and not a battery alone (8507). Heading 8207 covers only the interchangeable bits. Under GRI 1 and GRI 6, 846721 is the most specific subheading.
Rules applied: GRI 1, GRI 6.

Capable of operation without an external source of power
Confidence 0.80. A cordless lithium-battery drill is a self-contained electric motor tool that operates without an external power source, which matches the first national line 8467211000 that the specific description supports; the residual lines are less apt, though the absence of stated form and battery details lowers confidence.
