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 3206?

3206 is the HS 2022 heading for Colouring matter and preparations thereof n.e.c. in heading no. 3203, 3204, 3205; inorganic products, kind used as luminophores whether or not chemically defined. It is in chapter 32 (Tanning or dyeing extracts; tannins and their derivatives; dyes, pigments and other colouring matter; paints, varnishes; putty, other mastics; inks), section VI, and has 7 six-digit subheadings, from 3206.11 to 3206.50.

Can I write 3206 on a commercial invoice?

Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 3206.11), 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.
