Questions importers ask
- How do I find the HS code for a product?
- Search the product noun rather than a brand or marketing name, then narrow by material and function. The first six digits are the international HS code; the US extends them to eight digits to set the duty rate and ten digits for statistical reporting.
- Is an HS code the same as an HTS code?
- The first six digits are identical worldwide. The US Harmonized Tariff Schedule adds digits seven and eight, which determine the duty rate, and digits nine and ten, which are statistical only. Outside the US, other countries add their own national digits.
- Does the rate shown here include Section 301 tariffs?
- No. These are Column 1 General rates. Section 301 China remedies, Section 232 steel and aluminium duties, antidumping and countervailing orders, and the Merchandise Processing and Harbor Maintenance Fees all apply on top.
- Who is responsible if the HS code is wrong?
- The importer of record is legally responsible for classification, even when a broker or supplier supplied the code. Misclassification can mean underpaid duty and penalties, or overpaid duty you can reclaim through a post summary correction or protest.
