Question 1

How do I find the HS code for my product?

Accepted Answer

Search by product name or keyword above. The first six digits are the international Harmonized System code; countries add further digits of their own, so always confirm the full national code with your broker.

Question 2

Who is responsible if the HS code is wrong?

Accepted Answer

The importer is, not the supplier. A wrong classification is discovered at the border and can mean a duty adjustment, a penalty and a delay.

Question 3

Does the HS code affect anything besides duty?

Accepted Answer

Yes — it also determines which technical regulations and conformity certificates apply, which is often the more expensive consequence.
