The Harmonized System (HS) is an international standardized system of names and numbers to classify traded products. Maintained by the World Customs Organization, HS codes are used by customs authorities worldwide to identify products for tariff and trade statistics purposes.
The first 6 digits are internationally standardized. The U.S. uses a 10-digit Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) code for imports and a 10-digit Schedule B code for exports.
Enter a product description (like “coffee” or “semiconductor”) or an HS code number to find matching products. Click any result to see detailed U.S. import and export data for that product.
A Harmonized System (HS) code classifies a traded product. The World Customs Organization maintains the first 6 digits, which more than 200 countries and economies use the same way; the first 2 digits are the chapter (09 is coffee, tea, maté and spices) and the first 4 the heading (0901 is coffee).
Six digits are international. The United States adds 4 more for a 10-digit code. For imports it is the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) number: the first 8 digits are the tariff line that carries the base duty rate, and the last 2 are statistical. For exports it is the Schedule B number, kept by the Census Bureau, which can differ from the HTS from the 7th digit on.
Search above by product name or by the digits you already know, then open the code for its U.S. trade figures; the AI HS Code Classifier suggests codes from a plain-English description. Both are research aids, not official classifications: the importer declares the code at entry and is responsible for it, and CBP can review it. For certainty, request a binding ruling from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (past rulings are searchable in CROSS); duty rates by tariff line are on the USITC HTS site.
Schedule B codes are the 10-digit classification numbers used for U.S. export declarations. They share the same first 6 digits as HS codes but use a different 4-digit extension than HTS import codes. Exporters report them in Electronic Export Information (EEI) filings through AES, which most shipments over $2,500 per Schedule B number require.
