Important Notes

  • HS codes must be verified before shipment (misclassification can lead to penalties and delays).
  • Some goods require permits, NRCS, SABS, CBCA, or other regulatory approvals (especially electronics, cosmetics, and food).
  • African countries may use 8-10 digit tariff codes, but they are based on these 6-digit HS codes.
