Questions

HS code 382489: common questions

What is HS code 382489?

HS code 382489 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Containing short-chain chlorinated paraffins". The first two digits (38) are the chapter — Miscellaneous chemical products — and digits 3-4 (3824) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

What products fall under HS 382489?

How do I find the import duty for HS code 382489?

Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.

Is HS code 382489 the same in every country?

The first 6 digits (382489) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.

Can I trust the HS code a 1688 supplier gives me?

Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
