HS Code Classification & Customs Information for Your Declared Goods
Here's a breakdown of the HS codes you provided, along with relevant customs information. This analysis aims to help you understand the classification, potential tax implications, and important considerations for clearing your goods.
Important Note: While this information is based on the HS codes provided, the final classification is determined by customs officials upon inspection of the goods. It's crucial to provide accurate descriptions and supporting documentation.
1. HAMMER CORKSCREW (Implied from context, as no specific HS code was provided for this item initially)
Based on the provided list, we can infer you're looking for the HS code for a Hammer Corkscrew. This falls under Handtools. Let's analyze the relevant codes provided:
HS Code: 8205.59.00.00
- 82: Tools, implements, cutlery, hand tools, articles of prefabrication, articles of hardware, nails, screws, bolts, nuts, screw hooks, bolts and screws, washers, etc.
- 05: Hand tools (including glass cutters) not elsewhere specified or included; blow torches and similar self-contained torches; vises, clamps and the like, other than accessories for and parts of machine tools or water-jet cutting machines; anvils; portable forges; hand- or pedal-operated grinding wheels with frameworks; base metal parts thereof.
- 59: Other handtools (This is a broad category, requiring careful consideration of the specific tool's function and materials).
- 00: Further specification – in this case, indicating a general "other" classification within the "other handtools" category.
Tax Information:
- Tax Detail: Failed to retrieve tax information.
- Total Tax: Error.
Important Considerations:
- Detailed Description is Crucial: Because the tax information retrieval failed, a very detailed description of the Hammer Corkscrew is essential. Include the material of the hammer head (e.g., steel, stainless steel), the material of the handle (e.g., wood, plastic), and any special features.
- Material Impact: The material composition significantly impacts the tax rate. Steel and stainless steel may be subject to higher tariffs.
- Functionality: Confirm the primary function of the tool. Is it solely a corkscrew, or does it have other uses?
- Seek Clarification: Due to the tax retrieval error, it's highly recommended to consult with a customs broker or directly with customs authorities to confirm the correct HS code and applicable tax rate.
2. Other ceramic articles: Other: Other (HS Code: 6914.90.80.00)
- 69: Ceramic products.
- 14: Other ceramic articles.
- 90: Other.
- 80: Further specification – indicating a general "other" classification within the "other" category.
Tax Information:
- Tax Detail: Basic tariff: 5.6%, Additional tariff: 25.0%, Additional tariff after April 2, 2025: 30%.
- Total Tax: 60.6%.
Important Considerations:
- Material Composition: Ensure the ceramic articles are genuinely ceramic. Mixtures with other materials may fall under different classifications.
- End Use: The intended end use of the ceramic articles can sometimes influence classification.
3. Other articles of iron or steel: Other: Other: Other Other (HS Code: 7326.90.86.88)
- 73: Articles of iron or steel.
- 26: Other articles of iron or steel.
- 90: Other.
- 86: Further specification – indicating a general "other" classification within the "other" category.
- 88: Further specification – indicating a general "other" classification within the "other" category.
Tax Information:
- Tax Detail: Basic tariff: 2.9%, Additional tariff: 25.0%, Additional tariff after April 2, 2025: 30% (Steel, aluminum products subject to 25% additional tariff).
- Total Tax: 82.9%.
Important Considerations:
- Steel/Aluminum Verification: The tax detail specifically mentions steel and aluminum products. Confirm the exact material composition of these articles. If they contain steel or aluminum, the 25% additional tariff applies.
- Alloy Content: The alloy content of the steel can also affect the tariff rate.
- Processing Details: The level of processing these articles have undergone can influence classification.
General Recommendations:
- Detailed Invoices: Provide detailed commercial invoices with accurate descriptions of each item, including material composition, dimensions, weight, and intended use.
- Supporting Documentation: Include any relevant certificates of origin, test reports, or other documentation that supports your classification.
- Customs Broker: Consider using a licensed customs broker to assist with classification and clearance. They have expertise in HS code interpretation and can help you avoid potential delays or penalties.
- Official Ruling: If you are unsure about the correct classification, you can request an official ruling from your local customs authority.
