About & method

IsItChinese tells you where a car spare part is made. Search by the manufacturer's part number, an OE (original equipment) number or the EAN barcode printed on the box.

Where does the country come from?

The country shown is the country of origin declared by the part supplier, the one used for customs together with the customs code (HS code). The data was collected from the public product pages of Spareto.

Limits

• A brand often manufactures in several countries: the origin depends on the part number, not on the brand.
• The declared origin can change between production batches or suppliers. Check the box or the label of your part.
• “Made in” follows customs rules: the country where the last substantial transformation took place.
• Vehicle lists may be incomplete: always check fitment with your vehicle data.

This site is not affiliated with any part manufacturer or retailer, and makes no judgement on quality: a part made in a given country is not better or worse because of it.
