How do I determine the Harmonized Tariff System (HTS) number for my products and why is it necessary?
The Harmonized System Classification is a standardized numerical method of classifying traded products. This 10 digit identifying number is assigned to each product and used by customs officials in most countries around the world to determine the duties, taxes and regulations that apply to the product. The first six digits are harmonized throughout the world. The last four digits vary by country.
