Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "55" represent steel.

Specifically, Chapter 55 covers the following steel products:

• Semi-finished products of iron and steel: Such as plates, strips, tubes, and sections.
• Flat-rolled products: Such as hot-rolled sheets, cold-rolled sheets, galvanized sheets, etc.
• Other shapes of steel: Such as rebars, steel wires, steel angles, etc.
• Cast iron pipes and fittings

Therefore, if your product is made of steel or is a semi-finished product of steel, its HS code is likely to start with "55".

To determine the classification more precisely, it is necessary to understand the specific material, shape, use, and degree of processing of the product.

6-digit explanation: HS code: 5503.19

Classification: Synthetic short fibers, uncarded, uncombed, or otherwise unprocessed for spinning.

Specific meaning: Synthetic short fibers made of nylon or other polyamides, other types.

8-10-digit explanation: hscode: 5503191000 Classification: Synthetic short fibers, uncarded, carded, or otherwise processed for spinning: --> nylon or other polyamides: --> other: --> containing 10% or more by weight of nylon 12

Explanation: This hscode belongs to synthetic short fibers, which have not undergone carding, carding, or other processing for spinning. The main component is nylon or other polyamides, more specifically, it refers to other types of synthetic short fibers, and contains 10% or more by weight of nylon 12.

Examples of products: * Nylon 12 short fibers used in the production of non-woven fabrics. * Synthetic short fibers containing 15% nylon 12 for industrial applications. * Raw synthetic short fibers with a composition of 10% or more nylon 12 for textile processing.
