Hardware Goods HS Code Classification & Duty Analysis
This document provides a breakdown of the HS codes provided for various hardware goods, along with associated duty information. Please review carefully to ensure accurate classification for your import/export activities.

- Subheading (Next 2 digits): Further refinement of the product (e.g., 7317.00 – Nails, screws, bolts, etc. of iron or steel).
- Additional Digits: Country-specific codes for even greater detail.
