HS/HTS Tariff Code FAQs

What is a HS code?

An HS code, or Harmonized System code, is an internationally standardized system of names and numbers for classifying traded products. Developed and maintained by the World Customs Organization (WCO), it consists of a six-digit code that allows customs authorities around the world to identify the duties and taxes applicable to the products being shipped. The HS code ensures uniformity and simplifies international trade by standardizing product classification.

How do I read an HS code?

An HS code is typically composed of six digits, divided into three parts: the first two digits represent the product category, the next two digits specify the subcategory, and the final two digits further define the product’s specificity. Some countries add additional digits to the HS code for more detailed classification. Understanding how to read these codes helps in accurately classifying products for international shipping, ensuring compliance and correct duty calculations. Learn more about HS codes here.

What is the difference between HS and HTS codes?

The terms "HS code" and "HTS code" are used interchangeably. Product classification numbers with 8 to 10 digits are called Harmonised Tariff Schedule (HTS) codes. Meanwhile, the first six numbers are commonly known as the HS code, representative of the specific product category. Individual countries will then assign the additional numbers that follow the HS code to give more information about the classification and applicable tariffs.

Are HS codes different in each country?

The first six digits of an HS code are standardized globally, but countries can add additional digits for further classification. These additional digits vary by country, meaning the same product might have slightly different HS codes depending on the destination. It’s important to use the correct code for each country to ensure accurate duty and tax calculations and compliance with local regulations.

How do I use my HS code to calculate shipping tax and duties?

To calculate shipping taxes and duties, enter your product's HS code into our tax and duty calculator along with the shipment's destination and value. The calculator will provide a detailed breakdown of the applicable import duties, taxes, and fees, giving you a clear understanding of the total cost of shipping your product internationally. This helps in planning your shipping budget and avoiding unexpected charges.
