HTS (Harmonized Tariff Schedule) codes are product classification codes between 8-10 digits. The first six digits are an HS code, and the countries of import assign the subsequent digits to provide additional classification. U.S. HTS codes are 10 digits and are administered by the U.S. International Trade Commission.
How often do HTS codes change?
The HS nomenclature is updated every five years, with the most recent update in 2017. The Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS) was enacted by Congress and made effective on January 1, 1989, replacing the former Tariff Schedules of the United States.
Who determines the HTS Code?
Who Determines HTS Codes? The codes are governed by the WCO and are updated every five years. The WCO has assigned every product and its classification a specific six-digit code. For further classifications, countries are allowed to add longer codes to the first six digits.
