What is the U.S. Harmonized Tariff schedule (HTS)?
The U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule (U.S. HTS) provides special codes and descriptions for classifying virtually any product that will be imported into the country and the associated tariffs for the product. It is based of the World Tariff System. Each country or Customs Union that is part of the World Trade Organization has a Harmonized Tariff Schedule. In the U. S, the Customs and Border Protection Agency is responsible for administering the U.S. HTS.
