Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "83" represent metal products.

Specifically, Chapter 83 covers the following main contents:

• Various metal products, including tools, hand tools, cutlery, kitchen or sanitary articles, etc.
• Locks, keys, fasteners, screws, nuts, etc.
• Various metal structural components, such as window and door frames, building structural components, etc.
• Clamps and connectors for wires and cables.
• Other various metal products not explicitly classified in other chapters.

Reason for classification:

The establishment of Chapter 83 is to classify all products made of metal that do not belong to other chapters (such as basic metals, machinery, electrical equipment, etc.). It covers a wide range of metal products, mainly based on the material (metal) and purpose (various tools, products, structural components, etc.) for classification.

In short, if your product is mainly composed of metal and is a variety of tools, products, structural components, etc., it is likely to be classified under Chapter 83.

For a more accurate determination, please provide more detailed product descriptions, such as:

• The specific name of the product
• The material of the product
• The use of the product
• Product images (if available)

This will allow me to more accurately help you determine the HS code.
