The first 6 digits are the same in every country that uses HS 2022. Each country adds 2–4 more digits and sets the duty in its own tariff, and the section and chapter notes can include or exclude products, so check the destination’s official tariff before you put the code on the invoice.

Common questions

What is HS code 2512?

2512 is the HS 2022 heading for Siliceous fossil meals (e.g. kieselguhr, tripolite and diatomite) and similar siliceous earths; whether or not calcined, of an apparent specific gravity of 1 or less. It is in chapter 25 (Salt; sulphur; earths, stone; plastering materials, lime and cement), section V, and is not split further: the 6-digit code is 2512.00.

Can I write 2512 on a commercial invoice?

Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 2512.00), and the import declaration uses the destination country’s full code of 8 to 10 digits. Use the subheading that matches your product, and confirm the national digits with the buyer, the customs broker or the official tariff.
