What is hs code of a product?

 What exactly is the HS Code?

HSN codes are known as the "Harmonised System of Nomenclature." This approach was created to standardize the categorization of welfare over the world.


The HSN code is a 6-digit identifier that categorizes items and is formally acknowledged around the world.


HS codes are part of a worldwide network of terminology and amounts used to categorize traded goods. The HS Code for your product will be noted on the marketable statement that a client receives as a result of their transaction. It may be used to categorize items for export and to assess appropriate import taxes and tariffs.


Whether you are looking for Hs code 0303, Hs code 0702, Hs code 0804, or others it's important to get the right source.

The Harmonized System's Importance


  • The Harmonised System's main purpose is to serve as a global standard for customs tariffs. However, it may be used for a variety of purposes, including

  • International trade statistics are gathered.

  • Internal taxes such as excise duty and value-added tax are collected (VAT)

  • Tariffs for freight and transportation are based on this.

  • As a foundation for origin rules (which are the criteria to determine the national source of a product)

  • As a foundation for establishing preferential tariffs and MFN (most favoured country) tariffs in free trade agreements

  • As a foundation for countries to make trade policy decisions

  • To keep track of regulated commodities (narcotics, chemical weapons, endangered species, waste, etc)

  • Assisting with customs controls and processes, such as risk assessment and compliance
