Common questions

What is HS code 2705?

2705 is the HS 2022 heading for Coal gas, water gas, producer gas and similar gases, other than petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons. It is in chapter 27 (Mineral fuels, mineral oils and products of their distillation; bituminous substances; mineral waxes), section V, and is not split further: the 6-digit code is 2705.00.

Can I write 2705 on a commercial invoice?

Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 2705.00), 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.
