Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits "82" represent Plastics and articles of plastics.

Specifically, this classification is based on the following reasons:

  • Material composition: Products mainly made of plastic.
  • Product form: Covers various plastic products, including plastic raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished products.
  • Wide application: Plastic products are widely used in industrial, agricultural, and daily life fields.

Therefore, any product primarily composed of plastic usually has an HS code starting with "82".

More detailed classification is based on the type of plastic (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, etc.) and the specific use of the product.

The first four digits explanation: 8205 represents the following classification:

Meaning: It covers hand tools (including glass cutters) not otherwise specified or included in other HS codes, as well as further细分的 "other" category.

Explanation for the 8-10 digits: HS code: 8205591000 Classification: Hand tools (including glass cutters), not otherwise specifically mentioned or included; blow lamps and similar self-contained torches; vices, clamps, etc., excluding parts or accessories of machine tools or water-jet cutting machines; anvils; portable forging furnaces; grinding wheels with frames, manually or foot-operated; parts of base metals; other hand tools (including glass cutters) and parts: other: pipe tools and parts. Explanation: This HS code falls under the category of hand tools (including glass cutters) not otherwise specifically mentioned or included. More specifically, it refers to other hand tools (including glass cutters) and parts, particularly pipe tools and parts. It covers hand tools not explicitly listed in other subcategories, as well as parts of these tools.
