Harmonized System Code Classification

You provided the HS code prefix "40".

Reason for classification of HS codes starting with "40":

HS codes starting with "40" typically represent rubber and articles of rubber.

Specifically, this chapter includes:

• Natural rubber, synthetic rubber, and reclaimed rubber: Including various forms of rubber raw materials, such as crude rubber, rubber powder, latex, etc.
• Rubber products: Including various products made of rubber, such as:
  • Tires, inner tubes
  • Conveyor belts, transmission belts
  • Rubber tubes, rubber sheets
  • Rubber cable sheaths
  • Rubber seals, rubber gaskets
  • Rubber soles
  • Rubber medical products (e.g., gloves, condoms)
  • Rubber toys
  • Other rubber products

Classification logic:

The main basis for customs classification of goods using HS codes is the composition of the goods, their use, and the manufacturing method. For goods starting with "40", the main judgment basis is whether the goods are mainly made of rubber. If the main component of the goods is rubber and they have the characteristics of rubber, they are usually classified into the "40" chapter.

Notes:

• The classification of HS codes is very complex, and only the first two digits cannot accurately determine the classification of the goods.
• Specific classification also requires combining detailed descriptions of the goods, composition ratios, uses, etc., for comprehensive judgment.
• If the goods contain multiple materials, it is necessary to determine what the main material is, and then classify based on the main material.

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

• The specific name of the product
• The composition ratio of the product
• The main use of the product
• The manufacturing method of the product

I will do my best to help you find more accurate HS code classification information.

Hope the above explanation is helpful to you!

Explanation of the first four digits:

4012: Retreaded or used rubber tires; solid or cushion tires, tire treads and tire flanges.

Explanation of the first six digits:

HS code: 4012.20

Classification: Retreaded or used radial tires; solid or inflated tires, tire treads and tire flanges, of rubber.

Specific meaning: Used radial tires, other: suitable for vehicles (including tractors), for road transport of passengers or goods, or tires for vehicles of chapter 8705.

Explanation of 8-10 digits:

No corresponding HS code, the user input HS code is incorrect.

Product examples: - Used car tires - Retreaded truck tires - Rubber tire treads - Rubber tire flanges - Solid rubber tires - Rubber tire inner tubes
