HS Code structure

From the two examples above, the HS code of one type is a helmet for motorbike riders (65061010) and a work helmet (65061020). We see that these 2 codes have the same first 6 digits, only the last 2 digits are different. Because HS Code has a common structure, not a messy arrangement. You pay attention to the color you paint (every 2 pairs of numbers will have a different color). Here, I will introduce the HS Code structure. This code is issued by the World Government Organization (WCO) so it is systematic and consistent in nature.

Structured HS code includes:
– Section: In the HS code set there are a total of 21 or 22 Sections, each with a section legend
– – Chapters: Consists of 97 chapters. Where chapters 98 and 99 are specific to each country, each chapter has a chapter legend. The first 2 characters describe the general description of the goods
– – – Group: Consists of 2 characters, divides products by general group
– – – – Grouping: divided into more general grouping from group, consisting of 2 characters.
– – – – – Subgroup: 2 characters. Subheadings are determined by each country.

Note: In which, Sections, Chapters, Groups, and Subheadings include the first 6 digits internationally, the Subheading is country-specific.
