Customer Reviews
I was confused about the 3215.90 code, but this page gave a clear explanation of what it includes. Highly recommend this site.
The site explained the difference between 32 and 3215 clearly. I'm exporting paint now, and this helped a lot.
I found the section on 'printing inks' super useful. It clarified the classification for my ink cartridges.
The information is good, but I wish there were more examples of products under 3215.90. Still, it's better than nothing.
I was looking for HS code details for my acrylic paints, and this page had all the info I needed. Thanks!
