What is an HS Code?

An HS code (Harmonized System code) is an internationally standardized system of numbers to classify traded products. Indian customs use an 8-digit extension called ITC-HS for more precise classification, taxation, and compliance.

  • First 6 digits: Universal under the World Customs Organization (WCO)
  • Last 2 digits: Indian ITC extension for extra granularity (packing, process, variety)

Why is the right HS code important?

  • Ensures correct calculation of customs duties and taxes for import/export.
  • Required for shipping, customs paperwork, GST filings, and Free Trade Agreements.
  • Helps avoid clearance delays, penalties, or misclassification.
Tip: Always verify the 8-digit code in the official DGFT/Customs schedule or consult a customs broker.
