📌 Key Considerations for Customs Compliance
- Material Composition: Confirm whether the briquettes contain additives (e.g., paraffin wax) or are purely sawdust-based. This affects the correct HS code.
- Form and Shape: The classification depends on whether the product is in the form of logs, blocks, pellets, or other compressed forms.
- Origin of Wood: If the wood is non-coniferous (e.g., hardwood), it may fall under a different HS code (e.g., 4401220000).
- Certifications: Some countries may require certifications (e.g., FSC, ISO) for wood-based fuels, especially if exported to environmentally conscious markets.
- Unit Price and Packaging: Ensure the unit price and packaging details are consistent with the declared HS code to avoid reclassification or penalties.
🛑 Proactive Advice
- Verify Material and Unit Price: Confirm the exact composition and pricing of the briquettes to ensure correct HS code and tax calculation.
- Check for Additional Tariffs: Be aware of the April 11, 2025 deadline for the 30.0% special tariff.
- Consult Local Customs Authority: For the most up-to-date HS code and tariff information, consult your local customs or a qualified customs broker.
- Document Properly: Maintain clear documentation (e.g., invoices, certificates, product specifications) to support your classification and avoid delays in customs clearance.
