Harmonized System

The Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System ("HS") is a multipurpose international product nomenclature developed by the World Customs Organization (WCO).
It comprises about 5,000 commodity groups; each identified by a six digit code. The system is used by more than 200 countries and economies as a basis for their Customs tariffs and for the collection of international trade statistics. Over 98 % of the merchandise in international trade is classified in terms of the HS.

The official interpretation of the HS is given in the Explanatory Notes . The Explanatory Notes are also available on CD-ROM  and on an online database , as part of a commodity database  giving the HS classification of more than 200,000 commodities actually traded internationally.
