Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code starting with 97 generally refer to works of art, antiques, and collectibles.

Specifically, Chapter 97 includes the following:

• 9701 Paintings, drawings, and pastels, entirely hand-drawn, excluding those under heading 4906, as well as hand-painted or hand-decorated articles; collages, mosaics, and similar decorative panels.
• 9702 Antiques
• 9703 Stamps, seals, postmarks, envelopes, and stamp cards
• 9704 Collectibles
• 9705 Decorative articles and works of art
• 9706 Antique furniture and works of art
• 9707 Sculptures and other works of art
• 9708 Works of art and collectibles
• 9709 Works of art and collectibles
• 9710 Works of art and collectibles

Reason for classification: These goods typically have artistic, historical, or cultural value, rather than being everyday consumer goods. They are usually purchased by collectors, museums, or art dealers and have high value and uniqueness.
