HTS code lookup

Search the US tariff schedule by number or by product words. Each line shows its General, Special and Column 2 duty rates, its footnotes, and the revision it comes from.

Last updated By the Linbis team

An HTS code is the ten-digit number that classifies a product for US import: six international digits, two that make the US tariff line with its duty rate, and two statistical digits. This lookup holds the whole schedule, 2026 HTS Revision 21: 35,805 lines in 99 chapters, 13,802 of them with a duty rate. Search by number or by word, open a line, and send its rate to the duty calculator.

Look up a code

Type the first digits of a code, or a few words that describe the product. Click a line to see its three duty columns, its footnotes and the lines under it.

Type a code such as 6109.10 or a word such as cotton t-shirts.

Data: 2026 HTS Revision 21, the current edition since 9 October 2026, from the US International Trade Commission. Descriptions, rates and footnotes are shown as published.

How to read a line

PartWhat it tells youExample: 6109.10.00.12
Digits 1–2The chapter61, knitted or crocheted apparel
Digits 1–4The heading6109, T-shirts, singlets and tank tops
Digits 1–6The international HS subheading, the same in most countries6109.10, of cotton
Digits 7–8The US tariff line. The duty rate sits here6109.10.00
Digits 9–10The statistical suffix, with the unit of quantity6109.10.00.12

Each rate line has three duty columns.

  • General. The rate for goods from countries with normal trade relations, which is most of them.
  • Special. A lower or free rate under a trade agreement or preference program, for the country codes shown in parentheses. General Note 3(c) of the schedule defines the codes.
  • Column 2. The rate for the few countries listed in General Note 3(b).

When a line has a single statistical suffix, the schedule prints the rate on the ten-digit number itself. The lookup handles both cases and says which line the rate comes from.

Additional duties: what a line shows and what it does not

The General rate is not always the whole bill. Chapter 99 holds temporary changes and additional duties, the Section 301 and Section 232 tariffs among them. Many Chapter 99 headings say which goods they cover by naming a U.S. note to that chapter, and the note lists the subheadings.

Most lines do not flag them. In this revision 957 footnotes on product lines name a Chapter 99 number: 680 concern the Column 2 rate, 189 point to the additional agricultural duties in headings 9904, and 88 to other headings. A line with no footnote can still owe an additional duty.

The lookup shows every footnote as published and opens the Chapter 99 number it names. Chapter 99 is in the lookup too: type 9903.88, or any other Chapter 99 number. To know whether a measure covers your product, read the U.S. notes to Chapter 99 on hts.usitc.gov or ask your customs broker. The lookup shows what the schedule says. It does not decide for you.

What goes wrong

  • Reusing the supplier’s full code. Only the first six digits are international. The last four belong to each country, so a ten-digit code from a Chinese or European invoice can point to a different US line.
  • Stopping at the General rate. Chapter 99 can add a duty on top, and most lines do not flag it. Check Chapter 99 before you quote a landed cost.
  • Classifying by name instead of by what the product is. Material, function and how it is put up for sale decide the line. Two products with the same name can sit in different chapters.
  • Quoting from an old revision. The schedule is revised several times a year. Check the revision before you reuse last quarter’s rate.
  • Two versions of the code on one shipment. The forwarder quotes duty off one line and the broker enters another. Agree the code before the quote goes out.

How software handles it

A lookup answers one product once. A forwarder needs the code on the shipment, where the filing reads it. In Linbis each ISF commodity line carries its HTS number and country of origin, and you file the ISF from the shipment, under your own SCAC. Duty and landed cost are layered per line with the basis stated. Linbis is not a customs broker and does not classify goods or file entries. It holds the file your broker files from.

What this page is not. It is a copy of the official schedule at the revision stated, not the schedule itself, and showing a line is not classifying a product. Linbis did not write the tariff and cannot vouch for a rate that changed after that revision. Confirm on hts.usitc.gov, and ask a customs broker when the classification is in doubt.

Questions people ask

What is an HTS code?

A ten-digit number that classifies a product in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States. The first six digits are the international Harmonized System, shared by most trading countries. Digits seven and eight make the US tariff line that carries the duty rate. The last two are statistical.

What is the difference between an HS code, an HTS code and a Schedule B number?

An HS code is the six-digit international number. An HTS code is the ten-digit US import number built on it. A Schedule B number is the ten-digit US export number, kept by the Census Bureau; its first six digits are the same HS code.

How many digits do I need?

It depends on the filing. The Importer Security Filing needs the HTSUS number to the six-digit level and accepts up to ten. The same rule says the number can serve for entry only at the ten-digit level (19 CFR 149.3(a)(8)). A supplier’s code from another country is only safe to reuse for the first six digits.

Does the General rate include Section 301 or Section 232 tariffs?

No. They are additional duties in Chapter 99, added on top of the rate of the product’s own line. Most lines carry no footnote for them in this revision, so a line without a footnote can still owe one. Whether a measure applies depends on the product and the country it comes from. The U.S. notes to Chapter 99 list the goods covered.

How often does the tariff change?

Often. The US International Trade Commission publishes a basic edition for the year and numbered revisions after it. 2026 HTS Revision 21 has been the current one since 9 October 2026, and it is the 21st revision of the year. This page states the revision it holds, and the official site is always the reference.

Who decides the classification?

The importer of record is responsible for it and must use reasonable care (19 U.S.C. 1484). CBP has the final say and publishes its binding rulings in the CROSS database. For a new or unclear product, a customs broker or a binding ruling is the safe route.
