INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION ON
THE HARMONIZED COMMODITY DESCRIPTION
AND CODING SYSTEM
PREAMBLE
The Contracting Parties to this Convention, established under the auspices of the
Customs Co-operation Council,
Desiring to facilitate international trade,
Desiring to facilitate the collection, comparison and analysis of statistics, in particular
those on international trade,
Desiring to reduce the expense incurred by redescribing, reclassifying and recoding
goods as they move from one classification system to another in the course of
international trade and to facilitate the standardization of trade documentation and the
transmission of data,
Considering that changes in technology and the patterns of international trade require
extensive modifications to the Convention on Nomenclature for the Classification of
Goods in Customs Tariffs, done at Brussels on 15 December 1950,
Considering also that the degree of detail required for Customs and statistical
purposes by Governments and trade interests has increased far beyond that provided by
the Nomenclature annexed to the above-mentioned Convention,
Considering the importance of accurate and comparable data for the purposes of
international trade negotiations,
Considering that the Harmonized System is intended to be used for the purposes of
freight tariffs and transport statistics of the various modes of transport,
Considering that the Harmonized System is intended to be incorporated into
commercial commodity description and coding systems to the greatest extent possible,
Considering that the Harmonized System is intended to promote as close a correlation
as possible between import and export trade statistics and production statistics,
Considering that a close correlation should be maintained between the Harmonized
System and the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC) of the United
Nations,
Considering the desirability of meeting the aforementioned needs through a combined
tariff/statistical nomenclature, suitable for use by the various interests concerned with
international trade,
Considering the importance of ensuring that the Harmonized System is kept up-to-
date in the light of changes in technology or in patterns of international trade,
Having taken into consideration the work accomplished in this sphere by the
Harmonized System Committee set up by the Customs Co-operation Council,
Considering that while the above-mentioned Nomenclature Convention has proved an
effective instrument in the attainment of some of these objectives, the best way to
achieve the desired results in this respect is to conclude a new international Convention,
Have agreed as follows :
IE
Conv.

ARTICLE 4
1. Any developing country Contracting Party may delay its application of some or all

System partially under the provisions of this Article shall apply all or none of the
two-dash subheadings of any one one-dash subheading or all or none of the one-
dash subheadings of any one heading. In such cases of partial application, the sixth
digit or the fifth and sixth digits of that part of the Harmonized System code not
applied shall be replaced by "0" or "00" respectively.

1 .- Except where the context otherwise requires, the headings of this Chapter apply only to :
(a) Separate chemically defined organic compounds, whether or not containing impurities;
(b) Mixtures of two or more isomers of the same organic compound (whether or not containing
impurities), except mixtures of acyclic hydrocarbon isomers (other than stereoisomers), whether or
not saturated (Chapter 27);
(c) The products of headings 29.36 to 29.39 or the sugar ethers, sugar acetals and sugar
esters. and their salts, of heading 29.40, or the products of heading 29.41, whether or not
chemically defined;
(d) The products mentioned in (a), (b) or (c) above dissolved in water;
(e) The products mentioned in (a), (b) or (c) above dissolved in other solvents provided that the
solution constitutes a normal and necessary method of putting up these products adopted solely
for reasons of safety or for transport and that the solvent does not render the product particularly
suitable for specific use rather than for general use;
(f) The products mentioned in (a) (b) (c), (d) or (e) above with an added stabiliser (including an
anti- caking agent) necessary for their preservation or transport;
(g) The products mentioned in (a) (b), (c) (d), (e) or (f) above with an added anti-dusting agent
or a colouring or odoriferous substance added to facilitate their identification or for safety reasons,
provided that the additions do not render the product particularly suitable for specific use rather
than for general use;
(h) The following products, diluted to standard strengths, for the production of azo dyes :
diazonium salts, couplers used for these salts and diazotisable amines and their salts.

(ij) Metaldehyde, hexamethy lenetetramine or similar substances, put up in forms (for example,
tablets, sticks or similar forms) for use as fuels, or liquid or liquefied gas fuels in containers of a
kind used for filling or refilling cigarette or similar lighters and of a capacity not exceeding 300 cm3;
(heading 36.06);
4.- In headings 29.04 to 29.06 29.08 to 29.11 and 29.13 to 29.20, any reference to halogenated,
sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives includes a reference to compound derivatives, such
as sulphohalogenated, nitrohalogenated, nitrosulphonated or nitrosulphohalogenated derivatives.
Nitro or nitroso groups are not to be taken as " nitrogen-functions " for the purposes of heading
29.29.
For the purposes of headings 29.11, 29.12, 29.14, 29.18 and 29.22, " oxygen-function " is to be
restricted to the functions (the characteristic organic oxygen-containing groups) referred to in
headings 29.05 to 29.20.
5.- (A) The esters of acid-function organic compounds of sub-Chapters I to VII with organic
compounds of these sub-Chapters are to be classified with that compound which is classified in
the heading which occurs last in numerical order in these sub-Chapters.
(B) Esters of ethyl alcohol with acid-function organic compounds of sub-Chapters I to VII are to
be classified in the same heading as the corresponding acid-function compounds.
119
Section VI
Chapter 29
6.- The compounds of headings 29.30 and 29.31 are organic compounds the molecules of which
contain. in addition to atoms of hydrogen oxygen or nitrogen, atoms of other non-metals or of
metals (such as sulphur, arsenic or lead) directly linked to carbon atoms.
(b) The expression "used primarily as hormones" applies not only to hormone derivatives and
strutural analogues used primarily for their hormonal effect, but also to those derivatives and
strctural analogues used primarily as intermediates in the synthesis of products of this heading.
Suhheading Notes.
1.- Within any one heading of this Chapter, derivatives of a chemical compound (or group of
chemical compounds) are to be classified in the same subheading as that compound (or group of
compounds) provided that they are not more specifically covered by any other subheading and that
there is no residual sudheading named " Other " in the series of subheadings concerned.

I.- This Chapter does not cover :
(a) Separate chemically defined elements or compounds with the exception of the following:
(b)Mixtures of chemicals with foodstuffs or other substances with nutritive Value, of a kind used
in the preparation of human foodstuffs (generally heading 21.06);
(c) Slag, ash and residues (including sludges, other than sewage sludge), containinig metals,
arsenic or their mixtures and meeting the requirements of Note 3 (a) or 3 (b) to Chapter 26
(heading 26.20);".
(d)Medicaments (heading 30.03 or 30.04); or
(e) Spent catalysts of a kind used for the extraction of base metals or for the manufacture of
chemical compounds of base metals (heading 26.20) spent catalysts of a kind used principally for
the recovery of precious metal (heading 71.12) or catalysts consisting of metals or metal alloys in
the form of, for example, finely divided powder or woven gauze ( section XIV or XV)
"2.- (A) For the purpose of heading 38.22, the expreession "certfied reference materials" means
reference materials which are accompanied by a certificate which indicates the values of the
certified properties, the methods used to determine these values and the degree of certainty
associated with each value and which are suitable for analytical, calibrating or referncing purposes.
(B) With the exception of the products of Chapter 28 or 29, for the classification of certified
refrence materials, heading 38.22 shall take precedence over any other heading in the
Nomenclature."
3.- Heading 38.24 includes the following goods which are not to be classified in any other heading
of the Nomenclature :

4. - Throughout the Nomenclature, "municipal waste" means waste of a kind collected from
households,hotels, restaurants, hospitals, shops, offices, etc., road and pavement sweepings, as
well as construction and demolition waste. Municipal waste generally contains a large variety of
materials such as plastics, rubber, wood, paper, textiles, glass, metals, food materials, broken
furniture and damaged or discarded articles. The term "municipal", however, does not cover :
(a) lndividual materials or articles segregated from the waste, such as wastes of plastics, rubber,
wood, paper, textiles, glass or metals and spent batteries which fall in their appropropriate
headings of the Nomenclature;

(a) Clinical waste, that is, contaminated waste arising from medical reserch, diagnosis, treatment
or other medical, surgical, dental or veterinary procedures, which often contaain pathogens and
pharmaceures (for example, soiled dressings, used gloves and used syringes);
( c ) Wastes of metal pickling liquors, hydraulic fluids, brake fluids and anti-freezing fluids; and
The expression "other wastes" does not, however, cover wastes which contain mainly
petroleum oils or oils obtained from bituminous minerals (heading 27.10).
7- For the purposes of heading 38.26, the term “biodiesel” means mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids
of a kind used as a fuel, derived from animal or vegetable fats and oils whether or not used.”.

Plastics and articles thereof
Notes
1-Throughout the Nomenclature the expression " plastics " means those materials of headings
39.01 to 39. 14 which are or have been capable either at the moment of polymerisation or at some
subsequent stage, of being formed under external influence (usually heat and pressure, if
necessary with a solvent or plasticiser) by moulding, casting, extruding, rolling or other process
into shapes which are retained on the removal of the external influence.
Throughout the Nomenclature any reference to " plastics " also includes vulcanised fibre. The
expression, however, does not apply to materials regarded as textile materials of Section XI.
(e) Solutions (other than collodions) consisting of any of the products specified in headings 39.01
to 39.13 in volatile organic solvents when the weight of the solvent exceeds 50 % of the weight of
the solution (heading 32.08); stamping foils of heading 32.12;
(a) Liquid synthetic polyolefins of which less than 60 % by volume distils at 300 °C, after
conversion to 1 013 millibars when a reduced-pressure distillatron method is used (headings 39.01
and 39.02);
(b) Resins, not highly polymerised, of the coumarone-indene type (heading 39.11 );
(c) Other synthetic polymers with an average of at least 5 monomer units;
(d) Silicones (heading 39.10);
(e) Resols (heading 39.09) and other prepolymers.
4.- The expression " copolymers " covers all polymers in which no single monomer unit contributes
95 % or more by weight to the total polymer content.
For the purposes of this Chapter, except where the context otherwise requires, copolymers (
including co-polycondensates co-polyaddition products, block copolymers and gratt copolymers)
and polymer blends are to be classrfied in the heading covering polymers of that comonomer unit
which predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For the purposes of this
Nute, constituent comonomer units of polymers falling in the same heading shall be taken together.
If no single comonomer unit predominates, copolymers or polymer blends, as the casc may
bc, are to be classified in the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which
equally merit consideration.
5.- Chemically modified polymers, that is those in which only appendages to the main polymer
chain have been changed by chemical reaction, are to be classified in the heading appropriate to
the unmodificd polymer. This provision does not apply to graft copolymers.
6.- In headings 39.01 to 39.14, the expression " primary forms " applies only to the following forms :
(a) Liquids and pastes, including dispersions (emulsions and suspensions) and solutions;
(b) Blocks of irregular shape, lumps, powders (including moulding powders), granules, flakes
and similar bulk forms.
7.- Heading 39.15 does not apply to waste, parings and scrap of a single thermoplastic rnaterial,
transformed into primary forms (headings 39.01 to 39.14).
198
Section VII
Chapter 39
8.- For the purposes of heading 39.17, the expression " tubes pipes and hoses " means hollow,
products, whether semi-manufactured or finished products of a kind generally used for conveying,
conducting or distributing gases or liquids (for example, ribbed garden hose, perforated tubes).
This expression also includes sausage casings and other lay-flat tubing. However, except for the
lastmentioned, those having an internal cross-section other than round, oval, rectangular (in which
the length does not exceed 1.5 times the width) or in the shape of a regular polygon are not to be
regarded as tubes, pipes and hoses but as profile shapes.
9.- For the purposes of heading 39.18, the expression " wall or ceiling coverings of plastics "
applies to products in rolls, of a width not less than 45 cm, suitable for wall or ceiling decoration,
consisting of plastics fixed permanently on a backing of any material other than paper, the layer of'
plastics (on the face side) being grained, embossed, coloured, design-printed or otherwise
decorated.
10.- In headings Nos. 39.20 and 39.21 the expression " plates, sheets film foil and strip " applies
only to plates, sheets, film, foil and strip (other than those of Chapter 54) and to blocks of regular
geometric shape, whether or not printed or otherwise surface-worked, uncut or cut into rectangles
(including squares) but not further worked (even if when so cut they become articles ready for use).
11.- Heading 39.25 applies only to the following articles, not being products covered by any of the
earlier headings of sub-Chapter II:
(d) Doors, windows and their frames and thresholds for doors;
(ij) Fittings and mountings intended for permanent installation in or on doors, windows,
staircases, walls or other parts of buildings, for example, knobs, handles, hooks, brackets, towel
rails, switchplates and other protective plates.
Subheading Notes.
1-Within any one heading of this Chapter, polymers (including copolymers) and chemically
modified polymers are to be classified according to the following provisions :
(a) Where there is a subheading named " Other " in the same series :
199
Section VII
Chapter 39
(1) The designation in a subheading of a polymer by the prefix " poly " (for example.,
polyethylene and polyamide-6,6) means that the constituent monomer unit or monomer units of the
named polymer taken together must contribute 95 % or more by weight of the total polymer content.
(2) The copolymers named in subheadings 3901.30, 3903.20, 3903.30 and 3904.30 are to be
classified within those subheadings, provided that the comonomer units of the named copolymers
contribute 95 % or more by weight of the total polymer content.
(3) Chemically modified polymers are to be classified within the subheading named " Other ",
provided that the chemically modified polymers are not more specifically covered by another
subheading.
(4) Polymers not meeting (1 ), (2) or (3) above, are to be classified within the subheading,
among the remaining subheadings in the series, covering polymers of that monomer unit which
predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For this purpose, constituent
monomer units of polymers falling within the same subheading shall be taken together. Only the
constituent comonomer units of the polymers in the series of subheadings under consideration are
to be compared.
(b) Where there is no subheading named " Other " in the same series :
(1) Polymers are to be classified in the subheading covering polymers of that monomer unit
which predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For this urpose,
constituent monomer units of polymers falling in the same subheading shall be taken together.
Only the constituent comonomer units of the polymers in the series under consideration are to be
compared.
(2) Chemically modified polymers are to be classified in the subheading appropriate to the
unmodified polymer.
Polymer blends are to be classified in the same subheading as polymers of the same mnnomer
units in the same proportions.
2 - For the purposes of subheading 3920.43, the term" plasticisers" incldes secondary
plasticisers."

Notes.
1.- Throughout the Nomenclature, the term " man-made fibres " means staple ftbres and filaments
of organic polymers produced by manufacturing processes, either :
(b) By dissolution or chemical treatment of natural organic polymers (for example, cellulose) to
produce polymers such as cuprammonium rayon (cupro) or viscose rayon, or by chemical
modification of natural organic polymers (for example, cellulose, casein and other proteins, or
alginic acid), to produce polymers such as cellulose acetate or alginates.
The terms " synthetic " and " artiacial ", used in relation to fibres, mean : synthetic : fibres as
dctincd at (a); artificial : fibres as defined at (b). Strip and the like of heading 54.04 or 54.05 are not
considered to be man-made fibres.
The terms " man-made ", " synthetic " and " artificial " shall have the same meanings when
used in relation to " textile materials ".
2.- Headings 54.02 and 54.03 do not apply to synthetic or artificial filament tow of Chapter 55.

Iron and steel
Notes.
1 .- In this Chapter and, in the case of Notes (d), (e) and (f) throughout the Nomenclature, the
following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them :
(a) Pig iron:
Iron-carbon alloys not usefully malleable, containing more than 2 % by weight of carbon and
which may contain by weight one or more other elements within the following limits :
Alloys in pigs, blocks, lumps or similar primary forms in forms obtained by continuous casting
and also in granular or powder forms, whether or not agglomerated, commonly used as an
additive in the manufacture of other alloys or as de-oxidants, de-sulphurising agents or for similar
uses in ferrous metallurgy and generally not usefully malleable, containing by weight 4 % or more
of the element iron and one or more of the following :
Ferrous materials other than those of heading 72.03 which (with the exception of certain types
produced in the form of castings) are usefully malleable and which contain by weight 2 % or less
of carbon. However, chromium steels may contain higher proportions of carbon.
Products of which less than 90 % by weight passes through a sieve with a mesh aperture of I
mm and of which 90 % or more by weight passes through a sieve with a mesh aperture of 5 mm.
(ij)Semi-finished products :
Continuous cast products of solid section, whether or not subjected to primary hot-rolling; and
Other products of solid section which have not been further worked than subjected to primary hot-
rolling or roughly shaped by forging, including blanks for angles, shapes or sections.
These products are not presented in coils.
(k) Flat-rolled products :
Rolled products of solid rectangular (other than square) cross-section, which do not conform to
the definition at (ij ) above in the form of :
- coils of successively superimposed layers, or
- straight lengths, which if of a thickness less than 4.75 mm are of a width measuring at least ten
times the thickness or if of a thickness of 4.75 mm or more are of a width which exceeds I 50 mm
and measures at least twice the thickness.
Flat-rolled products include those with patterns in relief derived directly from rolling (for
example, grooves ribs chequers tears, buttons, lozenges) and those which have been perforated,
corrugated or polished, provided that they do not thereby assume the character of articles or
products of other headings.
Flat-rolled products of a shape other than rectangular or square of any size, are to be
classified as products of a width of 600 mm or more, provided that they do not assume the
character of articles or products of other headings.
(l) Bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils
Hot-rolled products in irregularly wound coils, which have a solid cross-section in the shape of
circles, segments of circles, ovals rectangles (including squares), triangles or other convex
polygons (including " flattened circles " and " modified rectangles ", of which two opposite sides
are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). These products
may have indentations, ribs, grooves or other deformations produced during the rolling process
(reinforcing bars and rods).
(m) Other bars and rods:
379
Section XV
Chapter 72
Products which do not conform to any of the definitions at (ij), (k) or (1) above or to the definition
of wire, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles,
segments of circles, ovals rectangles (including squares), triangles or other convex polygons
(including " flattened circles " and " modified rectangles ", of which two opposite sides are convex
arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). These products may :
- have indentations, ribs, grooves or other deformations produced during the rolling process
(reinforcing bars and rods);
- be twisted after rolling.
(n) Angles, shapes and sections
Products having a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length which do not conform to
any of the definitions at (ij), (k), (1) or (m) above or to the definition of wire.
Chapter 72 does not include products of heading 73.01 or 73.02.
(o) Wire
Cold-formed products in coils, of any uniform solid cross-section along their whole length, which
do not conform to the definition of flat-rolled products.
(p) Hollow drill bars and rods:
Hollow bars and rods of any cross-section, suitable for drills, of which the greatest external
dimension of the cross-section exceeds 15 mm but does not exceed 52 mm, and of which the
greatest internal dimension does not exceed one half of the greatest external dimension. Hollow
bars and rods of iron or steel not conforming to this definition are to be classified in heading 73.04.
2.- Ferrous metals clad with another ferrous metal are to be classified as products of the ferrous
metal predominating by weight.
3.- Iron or steel products obtained by electrolytic deposition, by pressure casting or by sintering are
to be classified, according to their form, their composition and their appearance, in the headings of

Notes:
I .- This Chapter does not cover :
(a) Electrically warmed blankets, bed pads, foot-muffs or the like; electrically warmed clothing,
footwear or ear pads or other electncally warmed articles worn on or about the person;
The heading does not, however apply to fans or ventilating or recycling hoods incorporating a
fan, whether or not fitted with filters (heading 84.14), centrifugal clothes-dryers (heading 84.21 ),
dish washing machines (heading 84.22) household washing machines (heading 84.50), roller or
other ironing machines (heading 84.20 or 84.51 ) sewing machines (headin No. 84.52), electric
scissors (headmg No.84.67) or to electro-thermic appliances (heading 85.16).
(a) "Solid-state non-volatile storage devices" (for example, "flash memory cards" or "flash
electronic storage cards") are storage devices with a connecting socket, comprising in the same
housing one or more flash memories (for example,"FLASH E PROM") in the form of integrated
circuits mounted on a printed circuit board. They may include a controller in the form of an
integrated circuit and discrete passive components, such as capacitors and resistors;
(b) The term "smart cards" means cards which have embedded in them one or more electronic
integrated circuits (a microprocessor, random access memory (RAM) or read-only memory (ROM)
in the form of chips. These cards may contain contacts, a magnetic stripe or an mbedded antenna
but do not contain any other active or passive circuit elements.
492
Section XVI
Chapter 85
5.- For the purposes of headine No. 85.34 " printed circuits " are circuits obtained by foming on an
insulating base, by any pnntmg process (for example, embossing, plating-up, etching) or by the "
film circuit ' technique, conductor elements, contacts or other printed components (for example,
inductances, resistors, capacitors) alone or interconnected according to a pre-established pattem,
other than elements which can produce, rectify, modulate or amplify an electrical signal (for
cxample, semiconductor elements).
The expression " printed circuits " does not cover circuits combined with elements other than
those obtained during the printing process, nor does it cover individual, discrete resistors,
capacitors or inductances. Prinled circuits may, however, be fitted with non-printed connecting
elements.
Thin- or thick-film circuits comprising passive and active elements obtained during the same
technological process are to be classified in heading 85.42.
6.- For the purpose of heading 85.36,"connectores for optical fibres, optical fibre bundles or
cables" means connectors that simply mechanically align optical fibres end to end in a digital line
system. They perform no other function, such as the amplification, regeneration or modification of
a signal.
7.- Heading 85.37 does not include cordless infrared devices for the remote control of television
receivers or other electrical equipments (heading 85.43).
8.- For the purposes of headings 85.41 and 85.42 :
(A) " Diodes, transistors and similar semiconductor devices " are semiconductor devices the
operation of which depends on variations in resistivity on the application of an electric field:
(i) Monolithic integrated circuits in which the circuit elements (diodes, transistors.
resistors,capacitors, inductances, etc.) are created in the mass (essentially) and on the surface of
a semiconductor or compound semiconductor material (for example, doped silicon, gallium
arsenide, silicon germanium, indium phosphide) and are inseparably associated;
(ii) Hybrid integrated circuits in which passive elements (resistors, capacitors, inductances,
etc.), obtained by thin- or thick-film technology, and active elements (diodes, transistors,monolithic
integrated circuits, etc.) obtained by semiconductor technology, are combined to all intents and
purposes indivisibly, by interconnections or interconnecting cables, on a single insulating substrate
(gtass, ceramic, etc.). These circuits may also include discrete components;
(iii) Multichip integrated circuits consisting of two or more interconnected monolithic integrated
circuits combined to all intents and purposes indivisibly, whether or not on one or more insulationg
substrates, with or without leadframes, but with no other active or passive circuit elements.
For the classification of the articles defined in this Note, headings 85.41 and 85.42 shall take
precedence over any other heading in the Nomenclature,except in the case of heading 85.23,
which might cover them by reference to, in particular, their function.
9.- For the purposes of heading 85.48, " spent primary cells, spent primary batteries and spent
electric accumulators " are those which are neither usable as such because of breakage, cutting-
up. wear or other rcasons, nor capable of being recharged.
