Tariff Classification is the process of determining the correct tariff codes for imported goods under a nation’s tariff schedule.
The Harmonized Tariff System (HTS) is the most used tariff classification system globally. The system assigns a 6-digit code to each good. The U.S. version of this system is referred to as the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
The rate of duty for goods is determined by their tariff code. The rate of duty can vary depending on the country of origin of the goods, the type of good, and current trade agreements between the countries involved. Accurate classification is a must.
If you’re importing goods, it’s important to check the HTS to determine the rate of duty for the goods you’re importing before the process begins. You can use our free and helpful HTS Code Lookup Tool for any goods you’re interested in importing!
