How do I find the proper classification (Schedule B number) for a commodity I am exporting from the United States?
A search engine for export classifcation numbers (also known as Schedule B numbers) is maintained by the Census Bureau at this url: http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/schedules/b/index.html#search. Please note that import HTS numbers can be used, with certain exceptions, for export shipments. Exceptions are noted in the import schedules at http://usitc.gov/tata/hts/bychapter/index.htmunder “Notice to Exporters”.
