Harmonized System Code Classification

40开头的HS code refers to rubber and articles of rubber.

The 40 chapter includes:

  • Natural rubber, synthetic rubber, and reclaimed rubber, including various forms of raw rubber such as crude rubber, latex, and rubber powder.
  • Rubber articles, which are the main part of the 40 chapter, including:
    • Tires and inner tubes: Tires and inner tubes for various vehicles (cars, bicycles, motorcycles, airplanes, etc.).
    • Conveyor belts and transmission belts: Rubber conveyor belts used in industries and agriculture.
    • Rubber hoses: Various rubber hoses used for industrial and medical purposes.
    • Rubber sheets: Rubber sheets of various thicknesses and specifications.
    • Rubber cable sheaths: Rubber sheaths used for cables.
    • Rubber seals: Various rubber O-rings, gaskets, etc.
    • Rubber soles: Various rubber soles.
    • Other rubber articles: For example, rubber gloves, rubber toys, and rubber stationery.

The classification of HS code is mainly based on the material composition and main use of the product. For the 40 chapter, if the product's main component is rubber and it has the characteristics of rubber, it is usually classified into this chapter.

Note:

  • The classification of HS code is very detailed, and the first two digits are just a general category. The specific classification needs to be determined based on the detailed description of the product, the proportion of materials, and the manufacturing process.
  • If the product contains multiple materials, the classification needs to be determined based on the main material.
  • Customs have the final authority to classify products.

If you need more accurate classification information, please provide more detailed product descriptions, such as:

  • The specific name of the product
  • The material composition of the product (e.g., the type of rubber, whether it contains other materials)
  • The use of the product
  • Product pictures (if available)

I will do my best to help you determine a more accurate HS code classification.

HS code 4006 refers to other forms (e.g., rods, tubes, and profiles) and articles (e.g., discs and rings) made of unvulcanized rubber.

HS code 4006.90 refers to other forms (e.g., rods, tubes, and profiles) and articles (e.g., discs and rings) made of unvulcanized rubber.

Specific meaning: Refers to other forms (e.g., rods, tubes, and profiles) and articles (e.g., discs and rings) made of natural rubber.

There is no corresponding HS code for the 8-10 digit range. The user's input HS code is incorrect.

Product examples: * Rubber tubes * Rubber hoses * Rubber rods * Rubber profiles * Rubber discs * Rubber rings * Rubber sheets * Rubber seals * Rubber soles * Rubber gloves

NoahDavis ★★★★

The note about customs having the final say was important. I appreciate the reminder that even with all the info, I should double-check with customs for accuracy.

OliviaBrown ★★★★★

I'm glad I found this page! It provided a clear explanation of the 40 chapter and how different rubber products are classified. Perfect for someone new to HS codes.

MichaelAnderson ★★★★

The list of product examples under HS code 4006.90 was very useful. I was able to cross-check my product with the examples and feel more confident about the classification.

EmmaTaylor ★★★★★

I was confused about the difference between vulcanized and unvulcanized rubber, but this page made it clear. HS code 4006.90 is exactly what I needed for my rubber discs.

JamesWilson ★★★

The information is good, but I found it a bit overwhelming. I would have liked a more step-by-step guide on how to determine the correct HS code for rubber products.
